this came up on mine recently after a string set change. It was fine before and then after the new set was on the high E sounded like a sitar. I loosened the string and wiggled it and it seated slightly different and it was OK. This 50 year old wraptail has a few grooves in her and I guess I hit a bad spot or maybe just some crap was in there.

What type strings do you guys use on your Jrs? Just curious, I think some strings may work better in a wraptail setup than others.
