I changed the strings on my guitar from light( Elixer nanoweb phosphor bronze) to medium (Elixer phospher bronze nanoweb).
I did this because I was hearing some twang/buzz on a couple strings when I strummed hard.
Pretty sure it was the G/B strings...
Now,they all sound better since the string change,which makes me think I shoulda been using medium guage all along.
However,I still hear a slightly noticeable twang/buzz on the B string.
Looking closer,I see the 2nd and 3rd frets are fairly worn down in that area...as if I play a D chord alot...
Here is my question: If a couple frets are showing sign of wear,will that account for intonation issues and /or string twang/buzz? If so,can this be corrected by " dressing the frets" or replacing the worn down frets ? :?
Now for the ..." Yer outta here ! " ...by the ref.... The guitar I am having the issue with is my 2000 Taylor 810 Dreadnought.
My Guilds NEVER give me any trouble !
