So I changed the strings on my electric recently and now the 3 low strings have started buzzing a lot. E seems to buzz no matter what I do and the D and A strings buzz when I fret the first 4 or so frets...
I figured increasing the action a bit might help and since I play on an acoustic half the time I don't think the slightly higher action would be that bad...but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do that.
It's a Crafter Convoy FM with Nashville-O-Matic (stoptail stylish?) bridge.

Did you lower the gauge of your strings?

How is the weather in your neck of the woods? Same as always?

The temperature has dropped quite a bit and humidty might have slightly increased. And I'm quite positive that I'm using lower gauge strings than the stock ones. (Using gauge 9 Ernie Ball's now...I think the stock ones were gauge 11)
