Yeah, noise is only part of the equation. Noise pretty much comes with the territory with home recording, unfortunately. Even with my reasonably acoustic-treated room, if I want a really good recording, I try to do it when no one's home. I've gone as far as to throw the electrical breakers in every room but the studio, and it's astonishing to hear the difference. It's like "ah, that's what quiet sounds like!"
But noise, especially steady noise like fans etc, can be removed pretty easily. The "room sound" on a recording, the impact on your guitar's tone is something you're pretty stuck with. Have you tried seeing what your guitar sounds like (on a recording) in each of these rooms?
