                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Could someone please help me with a problem that is driving me absolutely crazy.I have a Fender accoustic and a problem with the 2nd string only.The intonation is fine, tuning - conventional and harmonically is fine and everything sounds great  with chords until I play a ' D '  The 2ndstring is out of tune withnormal pressure applied. If I play the one finger on the 3rd fret " lighter" the chord is fine, however this is bothersome to play this way. It is almost like there is a valley inbetween the frets. I taped a piece of matchbook cover below the string and it played normally. I then used a capo to F' tuning (2nd fret) and the problem reoccured  at the 5th fret. It is the same from the nut up the only way I can describe it is like " too much room under the string between frets"  but everything looks o.k. I hope someone can help me with this, it looks pretty tacky with cardbord taped to the neck to raise the fret-board. thanks in advance for all your help.]]></content:encoded>
