Frett Buzz on Martin R-18 archtop and arch problem!!!! HELP?
i have a Martin R-18 archtop that has a slight problem...
about 2 days ago i was forced to replace the aged strings on my guitar, and while i was doing so, the arch moved a little, so i moved it back. now that i have the new strings on it, it sounds off. for instance the A string on 3rd fret sounds like a stick hitting a tin can, and the note does NOT resonate, and all the strings sound tinny, like a twang to them, and worst off all the B string has a horrible fret buzz, i cant touch it light enough for it not to buzz. i seem to have to arch in the same spot, because of the fine out line it has made on the body from the 70 some years it has been living.
i was just curious if anybody know what is wrong w/ it. b4 i get ripped off at a music store for a amateur to ruin my guitar and charge me $400 at the same time.
Thanks for any help!!!
What you're calling an arch is most likely the bridge, which was held in place by string tension. When you removed the strings the bridge slid out of adjustment.
A qualified technician should be able to fix that. It shouldn't cost $400, tho. Some techs charge around $50 for a good set-up.
