Why is everybody so obessed with matchsticks? Are they all chain smokers? Whenever I come across someone with a matchstick, I say "why not folded paper?" and they say "Deuh, didn't think of that". It is easy to adjust by more or less folding and less likely to scratch the surface of the neck. It's also readily available (right there on the music stand, who needs a score?).

If you have single frets tied using the easy "no knot" method, it is often possible to get hold of the free end and pull it tighter, then reburn. But the best thing to do is simply replace the fret. Soldering iron is safest/easiest/best.
