It's like buying a Honda or Maybach, different group of customer that's it. People who dont have that much to spend (like me) will always prefer a Honda (Which I do drive a Honda) over a Maybach.
Zuckerberg driving a Honda Jazz though lol

Otis, can you confirm, do you mean the buzz is present from the 14th fret to the 21st fret(or however many frets your bass has) or from the 1st fret to the 14th?
If it's 14-21 then it will be the action at the bridge you need to adjust not the relief in the neck.
Hello Dyerseve, many thanks for your reply. the 1st to 14th has no issue. From 14th to 18th if I play light enough it can be voice but 18th to 20th buzz really bad can not be avoid. If I rise the bridge side, the string height will be really high, but I will try to do that alone with some adj with neck. Once again, thanks!

what actually is the neck relief measurement and the string height ?
are the 5 neck bolts tight ?
Thanks for the reply, I didn't have to tools to measure the height but I'm sure I know how to setup the bass. I will double check the bolts tonight once I get back to home.

Was this problem there from day one?
Thanks for the reply gary mac, and yes, from day one. Since the bass was shipped from 1000 miles away, I wasn't surprised if there is a buzz or action problem. But since the time passed by, it bother me a lot once I started to like how the bass sounded. I will see if I can find a tech or luthier around me but I feel real bad about the after sale service.

Thanks for your reply Muppet, I do think might be the frets level issue but everyone I talk to they say the musicman has the best quality in the massive production range. Should I polish the fret my self?

Dear BCers,
I bought a musicman caprice few month back and here is the issue I have:
I have the neck set straight, the string have more than enough height on the board, standard EB string and standard tuning. When I play higher than 14th fret it start to buzz, I mean every position after 14th until the very last note. I'm not a pro but I'v been play for few years and never have such issue with my other basses. I'm living in China now (was studied in the UK for 6 years) and the dealer in China was a total d**k and refuse to help, so here I'm looking for any help or adv BCer can give me, was I'm being a total noob about how to setup my bass?
Cheers,
Otis

I might have same problem, only on my Sandberg TM2. Only happens when I am using dunlop super bright string (was buy one get one free, so I bought 5 sets), it sounds like dead string. But when I put roto string on it, the problem gone, back to another set of dunlop, same sh*t happen.
There was a video (by overwater?) says if u got fender-ish bass, do not cut A string when changing string, but doesn't work on my Sandberg.
Just my story, hope someone can explain this, I don't play my sandberg much but this made me crazy. -

Fret buzzing after 14th fret

Thanks to everyone who has replied. I find a guy and got the problem fixed, the issue was last few frets a poped out a little, hard to see in eyes but now the bass plays fine. Still whizzed at the musicman's QC and shitty dealer though.
Best,
Otis
