Posted on Ultimate guitar as well and quoting same
Hello guys
I bought a small guitar (34.5inch) in January which was easy to fret except for 3rd string 1st fret.
but it was small. so i sold it and bought a bigger one in used . around 40inch in size
Now i m facing issues with it
even after tuning it to EADGBE . Its much harder to fret even easier A D chords
almost double effort is required than my previous one
1st three strings (EBG) give fret buzz on higher frets.
1st string = 10th fret slight, 11th fret highest. 12th slight. 13th onward fine
2nd string = 12th fret moderate. 13th highest fine onward
3rd sting = 12th fret moderate
I searched for truss rod but my guitar doesnt have that. no hole in neck or under sound hole. But thats no solution for higher frets as per my internet research but will make fretting easy (I guess!)
Few pics indicating its out of shape
arrows indicate body of guitar is curved inside
