Hi, I call myself Ignatz after Dan Herriman's character in the old "Krazy Kat" comic strip. I'm 44, father of 3, husband to one, crazy about music and books and food and movies and history and martial arts. I've had some wild and crazy times in my life, and I figure I might as well put in some of my perspective.
I promise not to talk down to anyone or make fun,and I promise not to BS anyone. If you're old enough to ask a frank question, you're old enough to get a frank answer. Oh, and if you ask me a question directly, please be patient. I'll get back to you as soon as I can. My life's a bit hectic. :-)

Okay, I just bought a guitar, its a Schecter Dimond Series, and when I strum its makes a sound like the string is hitting one of the frets. It is in tune, and I would like to know how I could solve this, It is extreamly annoying. Please help (link)

Are you strumming in an open tuning, or playing a chord? Chances are, one of the frets was installed unevenly and is bumping against the string. Pluck each string in turn and see which one buzzes, then play that string from lowest to highest fret to see where the buzz stops.
Where did you huy the guitar? If you bought it at a music store, you should be able to take it back and have a luthier file down the fret. I wouldn't recommend doing it yourself, as it requires a special very fine file.
Hope this helps.
