  1. You could try this. Cut a small square from a plastic milk bottle and ease it under the nut at the string that is buzzing. Like this,

    This will lift just that particular string enough to make it stop buzzing, but not enough to notice any change in the action. The other strings should remain the same.

    I used to have an old Echo accoustic (didn't everybody in the world?) with much the same problem. This is how I cured it. Sometimes, the problem lies with the nut not the frets. If a guitar has been restrung too much, the slot in the nut wears down by the action of the string being tightened constantly. This, more so on the wound strings. If you are a regular string changer, have the nut changed now and then!

  2. Are there any online chord shapings to go with these tunings? I have a friend who plays mostly in open tunings, but he doesn't really know what he's playing! So if we jam, I have to try to find the key he's in, and play blind!
