Hey guys ! You're probably fed up with me regurgitating boring stories about my new Fender American Standard Stratocaster, but now I really need some advice, as I have spotted a few problems that I need fixed ! smile.gif

First problem is a buzzing open 4th string (D I believe), which isn't really too annoying, as I don't think it's noticeable when playing with distortion, but still, is there anything I can do to fix this without going to a guitar technician ?

Secondly, when doing a full bend (2 frets) from the high E-string on the 17th fret, the string starts buzzing, and it somehow looks as if it comes lightly into contact with the higher fret, disrupting the oscillation... This is just weird, could it be because the string is too low, making it come into contact with more than one fret ?

Please help ! I'll have to take the guitar to a tech at some stage anyway, but I would greatly appreciate it if you guys could enlighten me on some guitar engineering... biggrin.gif
