Without going into background, let’s say I am well schooled in set up. I forgot to add previously that all had self regenerating oscillation at the same frequency on the B string.
I’ve bought and returned 3 Core Santanas due to dead spots on the G string between 13th to 15th fret. Even drove out to a store that had an additional two, they both also had it. It’s not a set up thing but the wood resonating out of phase with the fretted note. Pretty dissapointing that so many...
Another way to check it to lightly rest the tip of your headstock against a wall as you hit the dead note. If it rings way longer, then it is a dead spot due to oscillation of the waveform of the note resonating in the wood out of phase with the fretted note.
