Something's buzzing
I have an Ovation super shallow body, and something is buzzing. It is most definately not fret buzz, and it sounds like it could be coming from the neck. Could my truss rod be loose? I have a feeling it might be a loose tuning peg, but I can't find which one. Could anyone help me by telling me what could be buzzing? It buzzes at a middle G.

(Sorry I can't describe more, I don't really know how to describe it other than that something is vibrating that shouldn't be.)

Could be a loose top brace. Take the backplate off (if you have one) and make sure the internal cables are not buzzing on the bowl.

Later, Ron H.

Could be one or more of the nut slots are too wide. Check to make sure the strings aren't moving side to side in the nut slots.
