Has anyone come across this problem?: Get tuned up with electronic tuner perfectly; all chords, closed and open, sound OK, except for the basic open D, (2nd fret, 1st and 4th strings), which sounds just a little "off" or "sour". Putz with bridge positioning until intonation is spot on, via standard 12th fret checking,etc., but have same issue. This happens only on my fairly recently procured, (<1 year) Collings MT. I love the thing, but can't shake the sour D. Does not happen with my 1920 Gibson A2 or late 70's Kentucky KM 180B. I measured fret spacings which all seem good against published fret charts. Any input welcome here. Thanks!
