    Custom 24 metallic ringing around 4k

    Hi everyone! This is long overdue, but I finally got my PRS back from the luthier today. It took him a while to get to the root of it. To start with a somewhat unsatisfactory point: even though the problem is fixed, he couldn't be 100% sure what the exact issue was in the end. He tightened...

    Custom 24 metallic ringing around 4k

    Yep, tried that. The problem is that the ringing isn't a single frequency. It is a whole bunch of them between 3 and 5 khz, producing something of a faint 'jingle bells' sound. I can notch most of it out, but when I stop to think what kind of facelifting I'm doing it's kind of ridiculous...

    Thanks for your responses! Tone-y: It doesn't sound like typical fret buzz, but I can't rule that out completely. I will measure the action and neck when I get back home. My guitar received a 'quick' setup from a highly regarded luthier in my area last year. He solved a lot of intonation...

    Custom 24 metallic ringing around 4k

    Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum, and I hope some of you skilled PRS aficionados out there can help me out with a long-standing problem with my PRS. Sometime around 2002 I bought a PRS Custom 24. I love playing it and I love looking at it, but it has also proved to be a terribly difficult...
