Help: Majesty: Sympathetic resonance

Help: Majesty: Sympathetic resonance

This is the third time I post this issue in this forum. I was very happy last time I did an update because the issue seemed to be gone but it has sadly returned…

My Majesty has a ringing problem with certain notes that I have self-diagnosed as sympathetic resonance.

Example 1: Sympathetic resonance (1) – YouTube

Example two: Sympathetic resonance (2) – Album on Imgur

Both examples (same issue I think) have been there since I got the guitar 6 months ago. I can’t hear this ringing through the amp (good news) but I mostly play the guitar without plugging it to the amp and it makes me go crazy.

This issue got better after I noticed that the bridge wasn’t completely level, I adjusted the trem posts until it looked level to me and the issue seemed to be gone. Sadly, it came back after a while.

This ringing does not always appear, it usually never appears the second after taking the guitar, but after minutes of playing.

Curious fact: “Example two” seems to depend on the position of the guitar, if the guitar is facing up it rings, in playing position it rings sometimes and if the guitar is facing down it never rings.

What I have done so far:

I have checked thes saddles on the bridge, they are level

Springs: I have muted them with rubber tubbing, changed their positions and even changed springs, it doesn’t work.

I adjusted the trem posts to level the bridge

I have checked the strap screws (apparently they can resonate if loose)

I have tightened the trem arm

Ideas? :confused:

I attached some pictures of the bridge if needed
