I've got a nice acoustic yamaha guitar here. The problem is it has some kind of dry buzz going on, and its comming from the saddle. If I put my hand on the saddle and push it down just a little bit, then the guitar doesnt buzz at all! From what I can see the saddle isnt loose or anything,,,any thoughts at all and I would be eternally grateful! :)

the string probably isn't sitting properly in the saddle

I have to agree... sounds like you strings aren't seated in the saddle or the saddle isn't seated... what is your string gauge? did you change sting aguge lately? is the saddle in good shape? is there any air gaps between the saddle and the saddle nesting? are your string pegs loose?

The saddle seems to be on its place, I also think like you, it could be the string that is misplaced....im going to go through some stuff and change the strings,,,I dont know the gauge but id say 011 maybe...
