Annoying rattling or fizzy sound caused by the strings of a guitar, bass, or other instrument contacting the frets above (higher than) the fingered fret while vibrating. Fret buzz can result in diminished tone, diminished output, and reduced sustain from the string. Typically, the action or neck relief of the guitar can be adjusted to eliminate buzzing and to clean up the tone.
