Adjust your guitar neck yourself! How to adjust your truss rod

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this video I detail the methods I use to diagnose a truss rod adjustment and how to adjust your own guitar’s truss rod. This video demonstrates how to address a high action due to a neck flexing due to change in string gauge.

    Thanks for sharing your skills Cage. I just changed strings on my Ibanez and and now have fret buzz but more pronounced on the high E and B. I assume you cannot adjust individual strings as truss rod adjustment adjusts all strings? Thanks and you have a new subscriber'

    Great video! Also, has anyone ever told you that you look just like David Cross?

    Do I always turn the rod to the right to lessen the relief ? Is the direction regardless of access from the neck or the sound hole. Very confused. Thank you.

    Tighten “Bow” turn it right. Loosen for “Hump” turn left. Sorry. I was wrong.

    @@joshualinklater4073 So here's what I understand. Bow=Relief. Hump=BackBow. Turn to the right reduces the amount of Bow=Relief. Turn too far to the right and you will introduce Hump=BackBow. The direction "Right' is regardless of the access point ( Sound Hole, or Neck ) I hope I got this now. Cheers

    Just make sure you seat the wrench fully before any adjustments. If it seems like the wrench isn’t fully seated stop and reset

    FFS man the guitar is supposed to be in the playing position and not laying flat on its back when you are adjusting and measuring the relief....
