Truss rod slack mimicked bad fret buzz on a client's acoustic
A simple turn with the wrench cleared it up and saved a full setup, in my experience.

Watched a loose bridge pin cause similar buzz on a Gibson.

My old Yamaha had the same thing last year. Quick quarter turn fix, just like you said.

Funny how so many guitar problems come down to tiny adjustments. That loose pin @blairh96 mentioned is the same deal, just a different spot. It's like the whole instrument is held together by these little bits that need a nudge. See it everywhere, not just guitars. Most things making noise or acting up just need one specific thing tightened or loosened. We look for big complicated fixes when the answer is usually a quarter turn somewhere.
