Just put some new strings* on, well it’s almost solstice , and I’m getting an odd resonance. When I play a D on the A string, 5th fret, I get a resonant note I think a D but higher on the G string. I’ve isolated it to that string by muting the others.
It’s a new brand of strings to me and steel rather than phosphor bronze if that makes a difference.
* they were a cheap eBay special £3 rather than my usual set at about £10. For reference a set of EJ74s is about £8 over here so I didn’t have high expectations. In fact I’d almost decided not to like them before I hit the buy button but it seemed too good to be true.
So is this my innate predjuice looking for a flaw, due to the switch to a different material, slightly different gauges or just one of those things when you switch brands?
