NECK TRUSS ROD ADJUSTMENT 1 String tension creates a bending force on the guitar neck. The Figure 5A Adjustable Neck Truss Rod exerts a counter force to the pull of the strings. The Neck Adjustment Nut 1 at the body end of the O neck is used to adjust the tension of the Truss Rod, Adjustments should be made using a flat head screwdriver with a small tip. The screwdriver should be inserted into the Adjustment Nut 1 at an angle. Figure 5B shows the correct procedure for adjusting the Truss Rod. 1 Figure 5C illustrates exaggerated concave bow 2 and convex bow 3 in a neck. If the neck has a concave bow 2, turn the Adjustment Nut 1 clockwise until the neck straightens. If the neck has a convex bow 3, turn the Adjustment Nut 1counterclockwise Figure 5B to correct the bow. Usually only a slight adjustment is required, such as one quarter turn. 11, O O 10 Figure 5C Figure 5A Figura 5A Abbildung 5A IA 5A Figure 58 Figura 58 Abbildung 58 DAI 58 Figure 5C Figura 5C Abbildung 5C VI 5C
