Dealing with Resonant frequencies very close together.

I finally have a guitar tone that I'm pretty in love with but there's a problem I can't seem to solve. 2k - 2.4k whistles like a teapot on steroids.The problem is there seem to be three resonances bothering me right next to each other. Cutting one accentuates the others, cutting them all makes the tone lack clarity. Maybe I'm just not cutting the right thing or cutting it wide/deep enough but if someone could take a listen to this and give me some tips to fix it I would be very grateful. I can hear it in my monitors, in my car, and over various other systems but I can't really hear it on my 650HD headphones even specifically looking for it. I have made a quick little riff with no EQ available for download: And I keep hearing that it would be fixed in a mix so for some context here are a few songs with that exact set up, but with some low/high pass filtering and about a 5 db cut to 2150hz. I can still hear it, and it haunts my dreams. I'm aware my mixes are probably crap but it's really just the whistling that is driving me insane. The microphone is a little bit off the edge of the dustcap towards the edge of the speaker. If I can remove that for my tastes the tone would be perfect. I posted this on another forum and pretty much everyone just said "buy Soothe". I want to be able to fix this without buying another $200 plugin if possible. I have the F6 which is also a dynamic EQ.

I would just use a single band of dynamic EQ to cut 2-2.4k in proportion to how strong the resonance is, whenever it's occurring. TDR Nova is a great free dynamic EQ.

You might be able to do something with ReaFIR - in compress mode. Pull down a band in the problem area and turn up the ratio until in goes away. You'll probably find that things go a bit fizzy, following that with a broad boost (in ReaEQ or whatever) in the same area of maybe 3dB might work. Or, try different speaker / mic / position. Use an additional more distant mic - can you move it around to control the peakiness? Polarity on that? [edit] Anyhoo, this is what it sounds like with the FIR + EQ trick

Have you tried using (ReaEQ) All Pass filter on the problematic frequencies? Rather than changing the tone, the filter will rotate phase (only on the problematic freq) thus will the change the overall summing result especially the adjacent frequency on the whole mix.
