Hey guys,
I need some advice. I recently got an Agile Septor Elite 827 from Rondo Music (this guy - Agile Septor Elite 827 EB DNC Tribal Purple at RondoMusic.com), but it has ridiculous fret buzz problems on the low frets, and is pretty much unplayable on anything but clean tones. Here's what happens if I palm mute a low bar chord with distortion - fret buzz harmonics problem by Kriztov on SoundCloud - Create, record and share your sounds for free
I'd usually fix this by adjusting the neck forward, but the neck is already bent in this direction. Straightening the neck out also results in strings actually touching frets![wallbash :wallbash: :wallbash:](http://www.sevenstring.org/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wallbash.gif)
Does anybody have any tips for eliminating low fret buzz? I'm not sure what else I can try, short of either getting a new nut put in that is a little higher, or getting the frets polished down to create more of a gap between the fret + string (which I don't like the idea of because they're only Jumbo sized frets & I'm used to Extra Jumbo). Has anyone else had problems like this in the past?
