Quesion about buzzing
« Reply #15 on: March 11, 2004, 05:07:45 AM »
So, after going through three music shops, none of which would touch the Skylark, I found the guy I should have went to in the first place. He is a local guy here in town, runs a service call The Fret Shop out of his house. He has worked on several big name act's stuff, and since they live here in town, works on Widespread Panic's guitars and basses. So, it looks like the buzzing will come to an end and I can finally get to play all of the Skylark's 24 frets! Okay, this thread has run its course, thanks again for the tips.

I'm guessing the number must be 02L12815 since the other is too long.
Everything I listed on my previous post is correct, the neck is maple with walnut pinstripes; it has gold knobs and straplocks and the date of completion is 06/19/02.

Okay, one more update, I am supposed to take the Skylark in in Friday morning, but today, there is even more buzzing. Now, it goes all the way up to the 4th fret on the high E string, and a few other places in the first four frets in the B and G. So, my question now is, should I wait a few more days to let it do all that it is going to do before taking it in?

athens,
 
I had a new Tribute guitar delivered a couple months back. It came from Santa Rosa to very humid So. Florida and also developed a bit of a buzz. The folks at Alembic said it would take a couple of weeks to adapt to new surroundings, but to go ahead and make small adjustments if I wanted to. Well I waited several weeks (partly because it was a new build, but mostly 'cause I was doing it myself and was apprehensive about monkeying around with the truss rods) and then made some adjustments, it worked out fine and is sounding great now. So to make a short story long, I think you could adjust away, but I would recommend waiting a couple days.
 
Good luck and congrats,
Court
