Pat Metheny PM35 Problems


Hey fellow Jemsiters!

I'm experiencing a few problems with my PM35

The B string saddle seems to move when the string is plucked. Imagine you were finger picking the b string, you would 'pull' the string up towards the ceiling to initiate the pluck; it is this very action that causes the saddle to move in the same direction.
When it moves, the remaining string behind the saddle makes an unwanted noise.
This is most annoying - how do I fix it?

Another problem is the pickup or something in that area seems to buzz and vibrate during playing. Again this is a pain in the arse, when I'm trying to play and all I can hear is buzzing from one end of the body and twanging from the other. LOL.

It's a shame because this guitar really is fantastic, and I've not heard these problems reported from anybody else.

Thanks for helping out!
Matt
