Here is a simple 10 second experiment you can try to see how much your strings vibrate. Dim the lights near your computer. Hold you guitar perpendicular to your computer monitor (turned on of course). Look through the stings towards the monitor. Strike a string and watch it vibrate. I never knew they vibrated that much. No wonder I sometimes get fret buzz.
