Try raising your bridge a little. That should help.

If you can't hear the buzz when the guitar is plugged in the amp and feel comfortale playing it then there's no need to adjust anything.

Action could be too low...

Frets may need to be levelled...

Neck may need some relief...

Nut slot may be too tight...

check for lose parts in the bride, also you can try tuning your guitar a LITTLE down or up it worked for me once.

You should try to adjust the trussing rod Smile

I had a similar problem. I raised my bridge and it's fine now. Tuning up can also help. String will be tighter.

Mike, dont go futzing about with the truss rod... u will likely make things worse.
If you have individual saddles, like I do on my strat, then just minutely raise that string until it's gone. If u have to raise it too high to play comfortably, then you need a tech to level the frets up there.
Stay cool...
