I took a bit off the right hand side of the underside of the heel last night. Its helped and its eliminated most of the buzz now, but you can feel that the problem has sort of moved over, rather than gone completely. The action is a fair bit higher than I'd like, but I'll give it to my father in law and see if he thinks its okay.
Hi solo, how is this guitar tracking?
Hi Gavin, thanks for the followup mate. Been away for a bit, so haven't been onto the forum.
Still basically the same. I bought and installed a graphtech tusq nut, which helped a bit. I'd done a fair bit to re-cut the standard nut a few times, but installing the graphtec made a big difference straight away. I never seemed to be able to get the first one right...
Still has a bit of an issue with buzz on the low-E around the 9th fret now (that sort of area), but it doesn't seem to come through the amp or anything.
My father-in law is a bit used to playing a guitar with a higher action, so he doesn't seem to mind it sitting a bit high. I'll continue to keep an eye on the guitar, and if he would like the action lower, then I'll have a look around for another neck I think.
Really pleased with the nut though :)
