You just might have to take it to a proper guitar tech or Luther for service. Here is an link to a PDF file. It's an owners manual for ESP guitars, but the info provided applies to most guitars.

It's the low E that buzzes, not the high E. If there is a twist, how major of a problem is that? The closest guitar "tech" (a store owner) to me looked at it in the past and fed me a bunch of crap about how those type of issues I should overlook. I then proceeded to notice he had a shop full of guitars under $400. Nice guy, but I just might know more than him just from reading the books I have.

Oh yeah and the face of this type of LP is flat not carved.
