why is there a buzzing sound coming from my headstock? (lemmy.world)

This is an old classical guitar, it might be up to seventy years old. It buzzes with every note but it's the loudest on the G string. Please help.

Alright, thank you.

Since that's a classical guitar something you can try for free is tightening the tuner pegs: there should be a screw holding the gear wheel and if it's loose try to tighten it with a screwdriver BE GENTLE, DON'T OVERDO IT.
If you're lucky it might be it, otherwhise do as I said earlier and bring it to a luthier.
