    Hey guys,
    Thanks for all the comments!
    I've already posted that in the GOTM post, but here it is again:

    I've recorded the new guitar with clean sound, going through each of the 5x positions, starting by bridge only, finishing by neck only.
    Playing is very average and I need to lift the bridge saddles I think to clean this fret buzz a bit.

    Cheers

    @wokkaboy: I've checked the frets and they look OK actually.
    I did 'bash them into position' during fret levelling, and they seem to seat as they should. Also the fret don't seem to be flat. Look like I crowned them OKay...
    I'm going to lift the saddles a bit. I think I've tried to get the action way too low.
    Thanks for your help!
