I ended up just buying a Warwick Corvette ( Double $$ ) 5 string and I find that when fingering *tehehe* the 12th fret for any 5 strings there is buzz between 12th fret and the nut.

Does this indicate the guitar needs some truss rod neck adjustments or that i should adjust the nut height and/or the bridge?

Does it start only at the 12th? Try it on the 11th, 10th, 9th, etc. until it goes away. I'm thinking maybe a fret or two needs leveling/dressing. I've honestly never run into that.

Also, is the Double buck a bolt-on or set/neck through?

Just the 12th fret, it is weird. I might just take it in and get the shop to have a look.

Corvette $$ bolt on.

I sorta regret the purchase now actually, I should have got a Streamer LX 4 string for very close to the same price instead or just saved a little extra for a Stage Streamer :(

Stupid fifth string, I didn't actually need you.
