Sunbeams clanky??

just put on sunbeams and they seam clanky down in the lower frets 105s using my mia p never had this problem before could it be the tension??:hmm:

If you mean frets 1-3 (roughly), and if you mean clanky as in fret buzz then yes it could be the lack of tension. Your old strings may have caused the neck to bow, now you have changed your strings to lower tension the bow may have been alleviated slightly. Causing the neck to become flatter, thus needing a bit of truss rod undo erey ;).
