S7420 Setup
Some of you may remember the thread where I was trying to set up my s7420 with new strings and couldn't get rid of the fret buzz, no matter what I tried? Well I've since shimmed the neck and redone everything...still buzzes. I've changed the action, adjusted the rod, shimmed the neck...still got fret buzz, the low b is almost unplayable. I'm outta ideas. So I wanna ask those of you with S7's if you could give me some quick ideas on certain things such as action at various places, nut height, neck relief and neck angle so I can see what's possible and if I'm going crazy or not.
Before the new strings it played so well, stupid me had to go and decide I needed thicker strings ![]()
Jetzt liegst du hier, ganz regungslos, in meiner hand und meinem schoß, du bist so kalt...

well it could be just that, thicker strings. i have a little fret buzz on my s7bp and thats fine, when i plug it in you cant hear anything, even on clean. but yeah if you hate fret buzz it sucks, my other s7 doesnt do it at all, and the trem is lower!

The strings are buzzing virtually everywhere, all the way up and down the neck on all of the strings, cept the higher ones. I'm beginning to think that I need fret work
. I've tried everything possible and can't get it back to how it was.So of all the people with S's here no one can take a few minutes and hook me up with some specs? Last edited by forelander; 04-05-2008 at 11:14 PM. Reason: Automerged Doublepost |
