Hi i have a problem when playing fretted notes when i lift my finger after picking the string the sound goes from a closed string to an open if u know what i mean, it kind sounds like (bow-wow) noise when emoving the finger is this normal because i find it ruins the noise im makin this only happens on the E-G-D strings.
THANKS FOR ANY HELP!

If you are going from the fretted note to an open note then it's just a matter of technique. Mute the string with your lifted finger. If you need to move the finger to another position like when changing a chord then perhaps you are accidentally doing a pull off where you are plucking the string with the fretting hand. Practice plunking the string and removing your finger without getting that plucked sound.

You give little information but if you are using an electric and running it thru some hi-gain distortion then you are going to have to learn various ways to mute unwanted string noise.

TRy and find someone else who can play or take it back to the shop and ask them to give it a set-up,assuming it,s a new guitar.
