I've followed the advice of the sobering Bill . . . for my AV Jag, I had
some buzzing issues which were solved by raising the bridge height, tweaking
the grub screws on the saddles, and by adding some shim height (that allowed
the action to get a bit lower, which was nice). FWIW, I use D'addario 11's
on the Jag . . .
My CIJ Jazzmaster doesn't really have buzzing problems, but the grub screws
on some of the saddles "unscrew" themselves and mysteriously raise up - I
really need to hit them with some Elmer's or Loctite!
