I recently purchased a Jackson PC-1. Changed out the strings and now have fret buzz especially on the low e string and cannot get the guitar back to standard tuning no matter what method i try. It has 9's on it which were what came stock on it, cruddy and changed them out for 9's Black Diamonds. The guitar played fine before the string change only sounding dull because of the cruddy strings. I have tried to adjust the spring tension to bring the trem parallel to get the proper tuning without any luck. Nothing seems to work. Each time I make an adjustment the tuning, never even comes close to standard which is what i am shooting for. Any thoughts, ideas or sites I can go to to begin again from scratch and get it right ????????? Thanks !!

More than likely, you are doing fine.. It's a matter of equal force and resistance between the strings and the springs.. Keep going, and it will even out.. Next time you change strings, don't take them all off at once, start in the middle and work your way to the outer strings (G,D,B,A,high E, low E), changing one at a time..
