Damn thats sweet. I just have my old 74 Ibanez les paul copy. A real lawsuit model dated by it's features and the cut of the neck since it has no serial number. It has the original frets which are about as tall as a credit card, haha. Almost gone but no buzz anywhere.

Yeah you need to try several guitars, in particular try a fender versus a gibson. And try maple neck versus non-maple. Personally I find the gibson style easier to play and my hand just cramps up really bad on some necks, mostly maple but maybe it's just the shape. You need to be one of those guys that just asks to play 10 guitars before you buy one.
