Thanks for the responses. I don't have an issue paying for a tab & I'm going to order Glazner's packet.

This is one of my wife's favorite songs & she has asked me to play it. I've been unable to locate a tab. I would appreciate if anyone knows who may have tabbed it out.

Buzzing middle & base string when fretted on 2nd fret
Instruments- discuss specific features, luthiers, instrument problems & questions
Issue resolved & thanks again for your comments. We're currently outside Savannah, Ga & I called Randy Wood Guitars(Bloomingdale, Ga) regarding my buzz. They told me to bring it in & there's a chance they could fix it while I wait. Well, I did & they did. The #3 feet needed reset. Randy handled it himself & charged me nothing. Great shop w/several luthiers working on all types of stringed instruments.

Thanks for the response guys. Ken, you're correct regarding how I've rearranged the strings. I was able to speak with Mike Clemmer this morning, he uses strings of different diameters than what I have & suspects that the lighter strings may be the problem. He recommends on this dulcimer that I install .010/.010/.016/.026 or.028. I don't recall if the strings buzzed when set up in the 5 string configuration. I'll let you know the results.

Mike Clemmer Mtn Dulcimer - built in 2002; vsl 28 1/2"; tuned DAdd; strings - .012/.012/.014/.022w; original owner
Basically I'm a neophyte & started taking lessons & studying the dulcimer the last 4 months so an expert I'm not. I changed out the old strings with those listed above & I've tried both larger & smaller middle & base strings but I still have a disturbing buzz on both of those strings when playing on the 2nd fret. Open or any other fret is no problem. The height of both strings at the 1st fret is slightly more than the thickness of a dime & slightly more than a nickel at the 7th. This was a 5 string dulcimer but I've taken off the drone string, moved the base to the drone location & the middle string to the center on the nut & bridge. Space between the melody to middle string and base to middle string is the same. I've not altered the nut, bridge or any of the frets.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
