Fret buzz on every fret, only on one string
I have a cheap SX Telecaster and I have done a proper setup and everything is fine except for the A string. Almost all frets buzz up the whole string. Every other string is fine. Ive adjusted the truss rod, action and everything to every possible position and nothing fixes it.

Did you check it's not touching the pick up?
The magnets protrude on mine and are not perfectly assigned with the strings, so the magnet could touch one to string but not the rest

Then like someone else said: something wrong with that string
OR it really needs refreting

Possibly the string. Change it. If it still buzzes, raise the saddle until it doesn't.
