I'm having an issue that my strings seem to "buzz" on the frets when they are strummed... if that makes any sense... almost as if my strings are too loose so their vibration is so wide that during vibration they come in contact with the frets. It doesn't sound very good.
Is there a way to fix this? Thanks
Note: I think this only happens on the low E string.

You need to adjust the action of your guitar. I am not expert so I can't tell you if it's because it's too tight or too loose, someone else will figure it out. You'll probably need to take into the shop. It happens to most people, don't worry about it

how long have you been playing? if for a while then disregard the next statement. but if you just started, there's a good chance that you aren't pushing down hard enough. when i first began i couldn't do anything w/o my strings buzzing, it was because i hadn't develped the calices on my finger (fatjack will correct the spelling for me 
) and i wasn't strong enough in my fingers to push down hard enough to make the buzz go away. but again, if you've been playing for a while, then listen to what bassmunky said.

if youve got a taylor it tells you how to fix it, by either truss rod adjustments, humidity, or a combination of both. what kind of guitar do you have?
