On one of my concert ukes (a "Callamaria" solid spruce top - a Korean brand not well known), there was some fret buzz on the C string if I pick it moderate to hard. Not super noticeable but enough to bug me when I play instrumental pieces.
I have tried several different strings, including tenor strings for higher tension.. but the string still buzzes.
I suspected whether the action was a tad low.. so I obtained a new saddle that is higher than the previous one. The buzz is reduced but still there.. and I dont want the action to be higher.
Where do you go from here?
Get a sanding block and sand the frets? I have not done it before, though I have seen a video on HMS showing it being done..
