Welcome Jan, you will find a great group of people here. I look forward to seeing what you come up with. Have fun!

Hey Jan.  Welcome to the CBN.  I actually got help in starting up here with Keni's tutorial video.  Eventually you'll find that just noodling around on your guitar will generate some nice tunes.  And feel free to ask anything.  This place is an embarrassment of riches.

Buzzing strings when fretted. Frets look good. I have a zero fret license plate guitar. Break angle I can inprove at the nut however the buzzing is coming from the bridge, I used a banjo bridge.
