Set Up, Set Up
This guitar was ordered in October as a Christmas gift, so it was kept stored in its box until then.
First thoughts, it was good. I liked the sound it made and the body was sturdy and felt good.
However, as I started to finger pluck, the bottom 3 strings (E A D) started making this irritating buzzing noise.
I contacted D'Angellico who sent me to my local distributor who sent me to a luthier in town; the only place open during the pandemic.
The guys looked at it and immediately said the action wasn't right, the nut was too high and guitar was buzzing up and down the neck.
I was recommended by Thomann to adjust the truss rod myself, something I had stated I wasn't comfortable with doing myself. Disappointed I'll have to pay in excess of €60 extra to play a guitar I barely played and paid quite a bit for...
