Have you checked for a loose brace? Those can sometimes be frequency dependent.
I had a buzz one time caused by a faulty tuner mechanism. It was hard to track down. Very frequency dependent!

Let's say they play a couple songs that go up and down the neck, but the key they play in misses the one note/fret you're having trouble with. That's more common than you think. There's no good reason to play games. I can't imagine telling my doctor to look me over and find what she thinks is wrong, when I went in for a specific issue. It's not productive and there's no advantage to it.

Yep, no loose braces.

Best of luck on the annoying fret buzz, Merlemantel. I once had the absolute worst, most annoying buzz I had ever heard. It took a long while to identify it, but with the help of Google U, I was able to find the answer: a back buzz. Never had even heard of it until then. I'm sure that's not what yours is, but I do know how frustrating it can be. Hope it gets resolved! |

It may sound silly, but one more thing to try is the pickup controls....can buzz if the contact is loose....
So hold the control against the body while playing the buzz notes. Then you will know! BluesKing777. |

Thank you. Not silly at all. That is the first thing I did. Then I asked the tech to make sure all the electronics were anchored inside the guitar. Unfortunately, we didn't find the problem in the pickup system.

Have owned several Lowdens, wonderful guitars, but I also experienced buzzing (on the B and G strings) that was not easily traced nor fixed.
In one case, it was a slightly loose nut around a tuning machine that vibrated at only certain frequencies. In another case, a tiny strip of tin foil placed into an uneven nut slot tamed the problem.

Another possibility is that something besides the strings is vibrating. A brace, or part of the pickup system, if used. Almost any part of the guitar can vibrate sympathetically with your D. Does it vibrate on all notes on the D string, or just open?

Only on the D string, only fretted, and in multiple positions (multiple notes). Frets have been checked, braces okay, electronics okay, tuning machines okay. Action raised to the extreme, still buzzes.

4 pages about a buzzing string? Really? I don't mean to sound harsh or offend, but come on.
