I have a Washburn wi-64DL. The back what is normally tone controls have voc on the control pots. What is that

Search YouTube for videos on guitar stringing... very good source.

The laws of physics govern this. The strings "ring" while they resonate. The time they resonate is related to the "Q" of the string or the efficiency. The Q is the enrgy stored divided by the energy lost per CYCLE of the oscilation. Strings that damp out quickly have a low "Q". This can be caused by any of several things thaat include anything that can dampen the oscillation. String quality is important as well as secure attachemnt at each end and proper placement in the nut at the head. See if you can find anything that creats drag INCLUDING string height that affects the windage as they vibrate. First place to look is at the resonator end. Are the strings well attached at the end? Is the bridge properly placed and setting tight on the head? The bridge often has offsetss for some strings... check that it is properly oriented. I will refer you to videos on banjo stringing on YouTube, They can cover much more than we can here using text.

Search on YouTube.com There are some good videos of exactly how to do it!

Probably time for string replacement !!! They do go bad...

Get a set and try the E string... if it fixes that one, change ALL the strings at one sitting, but do them one at a time and tune each as you go... this keeps the tension and minimizes the interaction when you do the final tuning.

Buzz usually translates to either inadequate fret clearance or poor quality strings or inadequate pressure holding strings against the fret.

The guitar DESERVES using high quality strings and I would look at the manufacturers recommended string weight or your music store should know what to use. The LIGHT strings MAY be your problem.

This is the way most aftermarket pickups are set up. Its to accommodate different wiring setups like coil splitting.

Whether the pickup is a Duncan or not does not make a difference. Make sure you solder the red and white wires together(the ones together in the diagram) and cover the joint with heat shrink or electrical tape.

A new type of peg that makes it easier to change strings!

Either that or most guitar shops stock string pegs, Just ask at the counter .. .If they don't have them and can't get any in then they are not a real guitar shop in my opinion

the washburn X10 is an electric guitar.

first thing you you want to make sure of is that you ask for electric guitar strings

next consider what kind of music your are playing...

heavier music or really moody warm tones your going to want thicker strings

med to heavy guage

if you want clear crisp tones than go with lighter guage

light to med

lighter guages are also easier on the finger tips.

the sizes usually refer the the smallest string on the bottom or the first string.

9 is the light 10-11 is med 12 is heavy

you might also want to consider nylon coated strings

they last longer

have great tone

easy on the fnger tips

but they cost more
