As you sight down the neck from the headstock, if it is too concave, turn the wrench clockwise. If it is too straight or convex, turn the wrench counterclockwise while periodically checking the gap with the feeler gauge. Repeat the same check using the first string. Periodically re-check tuning for standard pitch. If the nut feels loose and the neck is still not correctly adjusted, continue turning the wrench counterclockwise until you begin to feel some resistance.
