In any case, fret buzz matters....
Having a fret buzz on the first frets usually means that the neck needs a bit more relief, so maybe you can try a 1/4 turn anti-clockwise adjustment and see if the buzz goes away.

Well after searching.

Any idea where I should start looking to see if I can fix this??
I have a Schecter Damien Fr if...

I have a 2001 MIA strat that I bought used a few months ago. I got a good deal on it and I knew that it needed a minor fret mill(just some of the higher frets need to be milled a bit). The strings just buzz more than they should. It's not a very expensive...

What is superfine CA? Will it fill the wide-end fret slot ends out the other side.

I didnt realize the first one had raised frets untill it was too late thought it just needed setup to stop the buzz.
