Went and picked up my Vela yesterday off the wall and out of the blue I have an open low E buzz..... two hours later, between the truss rod and saddle, I still have a bit........ 44% humidity in my room. This guitar was like “ driving a go cart on the rails” it just plays sooooo good, nice and low and sweet. Suggestions on this buzz?
 
Not really sure, I have to dash out for work, but I’m wondering if It may be a bit de-hydrated, gonna try and put it in a hard case with a couple packets.
 
Oh no! You're gonna have to upgrade to core tuners, a core nut, core pickups, core frets, core electronics, and maybe swap in a core bridge!

j/k... I see you're new around here...

Personally, if it were me and a tweak of the truss rod & saddle height didn't fix it, I'd just try a new set of strings...
 
You are going to love that Vela.. it’s such a dynamic tone machine.. you may need to change the volume pot at some point.. I went for a linear one as you can achieve a wide range of sounds by small adjustments to the volume... enjoy
 
Oops.. misread your original post.. thought you had just picked it up.. so you already know what a great guitar it is
