Введение
High tension caused by the strings can cause the wood of the fret board to bow. This bowing can become so extreme it becomes difficult or impossible to play on due to the string height. Thus, in this guide we will learn to loosen or tighten truss rod.
The truss rod can be replaced with the strings on or off. Because the Allen wrench is bulky, this guide will show how to adjust the truss rod with the strings removed. Once the strings are removed, the fretboard will begin to slightly bend upwards or downwards. This will determine how much adjusting will need to be done on the truss rod.
