Hi everyone,
I own a 24 fret warmoth strat. I've been experiencing a high pitch noise whenever I pick the E string (very harsh glassy ice pick sound). I use 10-46 and the noise has been there for a while. It happens all over the fretboard but if I change my pick position and pick closer to the neck, the noise disappears. I usually pick right behind the middle pickup. And this only happens on the high E string. I've changed strings and it didn't help. I know from my luthier that my neck is dead straight. No way to easily fix it as the truss rod is loosened all the way. The neck wood is super stiff. I don't know if that's the cause but I'm assuming since just the high E is making that noise, it should be something else. I can post a sound sample if that would help. I just want to figure this out because it's really annoying.
Thanks,
Nick
