	~~=== Guitar Body Resonance ===~~
	I have a big body'd jazz ~~Guitar~~ that really likes to resonate at about 165Hz. That's an octave above the open (lowest Guitar) E string. So rather than having to mute that string all the time, I just dial up that frequency and set the width as narrow as I can - 0.2 (1/5 th of an octave) and setting the Level to -6 dB. This seems to do the trick, and since this Guitar really loves that note, dialing it back just balances things out a bit. I used -6 dB because I needed that much to tame the problem. In real life you fine tune the cut by ear. Use much as you need, but as little as possible.		I have a big body jazz guitar that really likes to resonate at about 165Hz.

	:I understand the concept of notch filters. I'm thinking the ParaEQ works in a similar way, and I understand Level and Freq options. I'm having trouble understanding the Width function. I understand the bell curve concept around a center frequency, but can someone diagram for me the .20 to 5.00 octave width? Exactly, what does this look like on the bell curve? What do the values, .20 and 5.00 mean visually? A diagram to explain it would be great, but I don't understand the "octave" part of it.		:I understand the concept of notch filters.
