yet another guitar thread

[Synth]

I noticed that on the 10th fret, B string my guitar is giving a harmonic/feedback sound. But only on that note. Heres what I mean

First I play the 10th fret, E string which is fine. Then I play the 10th fret B string, which is producing a harmonic/feedback like sound. Anyone know what the problem is here?

Sounds like a harmonic overtone to me.. unavoidable at times.

It could be a few things, either your intonation is not set up properly or your pickups may be to high and the string is hitting a harmonic off the actual pickup. And this probably can also happen if your truss rod is not aligned , you can tell by checking all your natural harmonics and if you barre your finger flat across and get nothing then your truss rod needs to be adjusted.

I am not really sure what you mean by feedback , there shouldn't be any feedback off anything unless you are aiming the pickups close to the speakers. Noise is not the same thing as feedback any kind of unwanted noise is wiring issues.

Are you muting the other strings when you're hitting that A on the B string? Try it.
