Help! Fretbuzz

[Gjeddekake]

Hi

I have been playing a Stingray for about 4 years now, and I'm very pleased with the overall feel of the instrument.

However, there is one reoccurring problem: the neck keeps «moving» so that my setup gets screwed up every day. This results in me having to setup the bass every time I'm supposed to play, which is kind of irritating. The problem is that I get a massive fretbuzz from the 2. and 3. fret on the D and G string.

I was wondering if some of you have experienced a similiar problem, and if you managed to fix it? Is it some kind of string-tension problem? The Stingray has a maple neck, and the strings are Ernie Ball flats, gauge 45 - 100.

Thanks in advance!

its hard to give any advice over the internet. any given will be an opinon based on what we think, not what someone with the bass in hand knows

a good luthier should be able to help you.. id suggest talking to the peeps at emnordic and ask for their advice, either in finding a luthier that can be trusted or have their own luthier look at it

hth!

ps: skurr på første til fjerde/femte er vanligvis at halsen har for lite bue, men som sagt.. umulig å finne ut uten å ha bassen i handa for å se. for alt man vet kan jo bandene være slitt, løsnet osv osv
