| Post subject: | saddle shape ? |
hey all. i've made a few lap steel acoustics, and have been noticing i get some string buzzing that is annoying me, the buzz is in the sixth string, only when using the tone bar. played open, strong and pure, not a hint of a buzz. anyway, my saddle is rounded over, so the strings ride in the center, and i nick the back side with nut files so they stay in place. is that the right way? i might try to bevel the saddle so the strings ride closer to the leading edge. the buzz might be a phenomenon with the tone bar. |
