I have an electric guitar that buzzes on strings 5 and 6 when I pluck them... how can I fix that?

Thanks!

it is most likely that your action (height of stings from the fretboard) is too low, it is adjusted by raising the sadles at the bridge , google guitar action and u should find loads of information, if u dont trust yourself to do a good job take it to tech
humans aren't imortal
but rock and roll will never die

I agree, take to to a tech if the guitar is of value. If its a cheap guitar you might be better served getting a good book on how to set up guitars. Google Dan Erlwine for some good tech books. IMO spending perhaps $100 on a cheap guitar is not a good investment. There could be neck adjustment and fret work as well as string height that could be contributing to the buzz problem.
