I don't know if you can help me on this, but my guitar's making some funky sounds.(not the good funky). It happens whenever I hit the 3rd 4th or 5th string. It kinda sounds like the string's hitting against something inside.

Sounds like it could be fret buzz. Do you mean to say it happens when you play on those frets?

It used to happen when I just hit the 3rd string..and the 10th-15th fret on the 5th string. but it's not doing anything with the 3rd string now. so yeah, just those certain frets.

Must be fret buzz. The only easy fix for that is to raise your action a little (assuming this is an electric guitar we're talking about.), and then reintonate the bridge. If you need help just ask in the DIY forum and someone will help you out.
