there is always some buzz. the few first oscillations of a string will always hit the next fret, you may not hear it but it's there. you also can cause severe buzz by hitting the strings hard, on any guitar. there's really no reason to be paranoid about the buzz. sometimes it even sounds nice.

don't see the picture as well, but it should be all fine. i had this little finish cracks in both strats i've owned, and also see this in others' guitars quite often. i imagine it would be really hard to make in a crack in the body and still have the guitar to hold together.

i've played Xaviere strat and a thinline tele. the neck is OK. banana tint is awful indeed, but the thing was pretty playable to me. the neck on thinline tele was a bit thicker and more of a clubby profile, as opposed to strat. the neck on strat was thin and flat, i guess that's a D profile. not sur...
