Re: Wolf notes



Muso wrote on 4/26/2008 :
As I mentioned in another post, yesterday I took the twelve-gauge
strings off of my steel-string acoustic guitar, and then I put on some
eight-gauge strings. Everything went just fine, except that I ended
up with a wolf note on the number-five string, when played unfretted.
Since I converted my guitar into a five-string model awhile back, I
then did an internet search, and I learned that the number-six string
in an eight-gauge set is about the same size as the number-five string
in an eleven-gauge set, so I used the number-six string in place of
the number-five string, and the wolf note disappeared.

I would be curious to know if anyone here has ever had a problem with
a wolf note on their guitar. You know, a note that just won't sound
right.

Intesting....now what the hell is a "wolf" note????
