Hi, i m using a ibanez sz320 and when i play my 14th fret, there's this sound like its hitting the next fret. The note is still the the 14th fret note but because its so close the next fret, the note doesnt ring is nicely. Can any nice people tell me how do i solve the problem? Do need to raise my action or something?
 
u said it "sounds like its hitting the next fret" . by hitting the next fret, did u mean fret buzz? if so, then it might be corrected by slightly raising the action. also, is the 14th fret worn out as compared to the 15th fret? (I.e. the fretwire at the 14th fret is lower than that of the 15th fret)
 
haha nah it wasnt buldged out.... and its not so much of a buzzing sound... its like the next fret slightly dampens the note... it becomes normal when i bend the e string a little bit.... oh ya i think i didnt mention that its the first e string, meaning the thinnest e string thats giving me this kind of nonsense....
