First off- I'm a huge fan of the dolphin. I own several, have given them as gifts, and recommend them all the time to new players.
However, I have noticed a trend in the last 15 or so dolphins I have played. The E string (2nd) has a noticeable buzz on the 1st fret- and sometimes other places, to a lesser extent. This has been true for all but one of them- and it had the same problem on the 1st string instead. One I bought was so bad that I had to return it. Even the 2 I have bought recently have a slight buzz. I Have put 3 different kinds of strings on them- including aquilas- the buzz remains there to some extent. Those of you who have dolphins of old- is this true for you?
Any recommendations?
