When I fret the D flat, sixth fret on the G string on my mandolin, it sounds like the two strings in that course are out of tune. It’s most pronounced there, but it happens to a lesser degree on other frets from there on up, only on what would be the black keys. Dampening the D string makes it stop. So, that D flat seems to be making the D string produce some tone. Same thin, but less pronounced, happens one fret over on the D string with same remedy by dampening the A string.
Any thoughts on whether this is something that can be fixed? By the way, it’s not because of old strings.
