Re: Fret Buzz

Larry Lamb writes :

Every time I release my finger off the fret that is. Just before the sustaining notes goes silent I hear a buzz. Maybe I'll try record it and post the recording somewhere.

I think it's just a matter of how quickly you lift your finger.
If you go real slow it will certainly buzz at some point. Lift
it quickly and keep your finger on the string, unless you want
to do a pull-off. Don't lift it if you're going to play a note
further up the same string without moving your position.
