I'm not a super delicate player but at the same time, I'm not slamming down my fingers when I fret notes.

I hear overtones and all sorts of stuff when playing guitars whether they be acoustic or electric but in this case, it's much more pronounced.
Glad I took the time to try this, and write up my observations. You’re welcome.

How's the relief on that guitar? From your description it sounds pretty high, and lowering it should help.
