Changed Strings!! Ahhh!
Just changed all of the strings on my electric, and it seems to be ok, until you twang it and it buzzes... is this normal for a new set of strings?
Note - It seems to be the low E only..

Did you use the same size of string? Sounds like the action (string height) needs to be raised a bit.
Be sure to give the fret board a good inspection, see if you can determine what its buzzing on. If nothing make slight adjustments up until the buzzing stops.
Remember, wherever you go... there you are.

I think its at the bridge, although its disappearing as I play it, so I think i can put it down to "needing a stretch" =)

Another possibility, tuning to low can also cause some "slack" and buzz a bit. But I've see some mysterious buzzes go away with stretching... just usually not on the fat strings.
Either way... Rock on Dude!
