Why does your acoustic guitar make a buzzing sound when you strum?

Might be because the action on the strings is too low,
basically, your strings are too close to your fretboard.
everytime you pluck one it will vibrate against the frets,
try to set them up a bit higher. or turn them a bit tighter,
this might do the trick.

∙ 14y agoThe G string is usually the first to buzz when lowering the action. If this an Electric Guitar, check to see if the buzz is heard through an amplifier. If not, no worries. This is common practice. If it is an acoustic or can be heard amplified, adjust the neck or raise the action (of just the G string if possible).

What is the hole in an acoustic guitar called?
The sound hole. If you strum your chord above it it'll make a louder sound.
What kind of sound will a guitar produce when you strum forcefully?
guitar makes a weird kinda staticy sound when I strum it forcefully
How can you use a guitar without making any sound?
You can, it is just rather quiet. An acoustic guitar is designed to amplify its own sound. This happens because the sound waves travel into the hole in an acoustic, they reverberate and echo out through the hole. An electric (typically) does not have a hole for this purpose, so all you can hear are the strings reverberating. But you can hear it if you strum the string hard.
Does a guitar have to have a hole in the center?
I believe you've asked this because you've probably seen a picture of an acoustic guitar, which uses vibrations to create it's trademark sound. When you strum a string on an acoustic guitar, the sound bounces back into the inside of the guitar (by going through the 'hole'), and bounces back out to increase sound. This is similar to when you shout into a cave. But no, guitars can be made without the acoustic hole. For example, an electric guitar needs no hole, because it uses an amplifier to create sound; same with bass guitars. you are so dumb.
