Question for whoever can answer:

I recently changed the strings on my Agile AL-3100 (LP clone), and I put on GHS boomers, 0.011. Now, I get a tiny bit of buzz on open chords strummed hard. Moreover, in the Line 6 Pod Farm I mess around on quite a bit, there's a distinct buzz/distortion after the pick attack now, which makes even clean guitar sound distorted.

So I guess it's a couple of questions: 1) Is it possible I screwed up something I don't even realize in restringing the guitar (it's the same gauge strings as the setup, except the low E is slightly heavier due to a different brand) and 2) Is this in any way related to the distortion I hear in Pod Farm/Gearbox now?

I posted this in here because of the stop tailpiece/Les Paul thing, but maybe this would be better off in the beginner thread? Not sure.
