I have a JPX6 Reserve, bought it about a year ago. I have always used the same strings
(Ernie Ball Slinky 2221) 10-13-17-26-36-46. Pretty much standard, but a few months ago the high E string started sounding fuzzy when struck open. Even a light pick motion you can hear a fuzzy or buzzing sound. No problem, I checked the bridge piece to make sure the spring tension was right (very slightly raised at the back but pretty much level with the body as when I received it) So, I raised both bridge adjusters about 1/2 turn and no more buzzing. A few weeks later, it did the same thing! I again raised the bridge adjusters 1/2 turn and no buzzing. Again! it did it again so I raised it one more time!
The strings are still close to the neck and I sighted the neck down the length from the head piece and it looks straight. I have not checked it with a straight edge yet. The Neck bolts are tight and all hardware is tight. Wierd hugh? Any thoughts??
