Well I finally got this baby back together. I made some upgrades to it as you can see. Installed Seymour Duncan SSL1's in the neck/middle and a SSL5 in the bridge. It has a Graph tech nut/saddles/string tree. However, I do have fret buzz even after it's been set up to Fender specs. This isn't something that's popped up after doing the mods, this has always been like this. Any ideas, or is this something the is just unique to Fenders?

Here she is with my PRS SE Cu24. I haven't set this up yet, but she is nice.

Very nice guitars!! I like the wolf p/g and pickup covers.
I noticed the many guns in that gun cabinet...I am a gun guy myself. In that first pic, it looks like you have an older remington, maybe a gamemaster or woodsmaster? I have one with the basket weave stock in 30-06. Love it.

It's not unheard of. When I have issues eliminating buzzing on my own, I take mine in for a professional set up. I usually have to do this every other year or so. Just because it is set up to factory specs, it does not mean it is ready. Company specs are more of a guideline to start off with, then you may need to tweak here and there to zero it in to your guitar's sweet spot.

The 4th gun from the left looks like an Enfield .303. Great rifle, I've taken a few deer and had some great dinners thanks to that rifle. Back to the subject at hand. Is the buzzing from one string or all strings?

I love your wolf pickguard,I belong to several organizations that support the conservation of wolves and their habitat.Where did you get it from?As for the buzzing does it happen on all strings on all frets,or does it just happen in certain spots on the neck?
