I am trying to figure out why a note, any fretted note, does not sound correct. Examples would include playing the wrong note, or finger too far away from the fret. Sometimes a note will buzz. What would cause that? I tried to figure this out by feel, and the use of a mirror, without any luck.
Thank you for your input.

Fret buzz could be caused by a few things. Like you mentioned, fretting too far from the fret wire will make the note buzz. A guitar that’s not set up correctly will also have buzzing issues. Example, action is too low, not enough neck relief or uneven frets.
