My e String Is Fücked
My high e string is fücked up on my guitar. When I push down on the 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th fret, it creates all the same sound, and the sound isn't clear at all either. How do I fix this? The 9th-12th frets all sound the same..

when you pick it does it make a buzzing noise?

Somewhat, it sounds like I'm barely pushing on the fret so when I hit the string hardly any noise comes out.

you need a fret dressing, possibly a refret. Take it to a tech. Your frets have gone "dead" (they're lower than the ones around them). Unless you can do some serious surgery on your axe (in which case you wouldn't be on here asking this question), it needs to be taken in for repair.

Do you have a Floyd Rose bridge??
Cause i have the exact same problem with you whenever the tension in my strings is low. My bridge angles downwards and about the 12-14th fret all sound like the 14th. Soon as i tighten my strings, everything's fine.
But if you don't have a floyd rose....then, do what the other guys said.

How do I raise my strings?
This sucks, I don't think I have any money to repair it if I even need to, and I don't think I have a Floyd Rose Bridge.
Here is a picture of my guitar, if it helps.

it shouldn't cost too much, if you don't take it to like, a guitar center or sam ash. If you just find a little corner music store, the tech's will be just as good, maybe better, and it'll be cheaper. Thats what i did with my EMGs, little place along the road caled hyway music, they put the EMGs in for 50 bucks. While guitar center was asking for 100 or so.

Try buying thinner gauge strings.
