Saddle adjustment

[Bobz1b]

Hi
I'm still getting a buzz on my bottom 2 strings and was thinking of raising the saddles as my guitar (custom24) was second hand I didn't get any tools,what do I need...small Allen key??
Regards
Bob

Yes, not sure of the size...

But have you checked the relief in the neck?

A simple truss rod adjustment may be all you need...

Hi jamie
thanks for the reply, Im assuming its not a truss rod problem as its not across the 6 strings, just the low E and A between fret 3 to 9 or there abouts

IMHO, check the neck relief as well... There are instrustions on how to do this on the PRS site I think...
Usually when string buzz on the lower frets, the neck relief could be the problem. If it is on the higher frets it is probably the saddles height....

Hi guy`s

you were right I have slackened the truss rod a bout 3/4 of a turn trying a quarter at a time and its solved the problem, its like a new guitar now

thanks
