Truss Rod troubles

06-30-2011, 10:05 AM

Well, I got a new neck a few months back for my squire, I had to fit onto my strat and after wiring the thing back up(I'll do a NPGD for it soon) and stringing it up, I noticed a balls-loads of buzzing at the 7th fret and up to the nut. I picked up the guitar looked down the neck and it was warped... So basically, I know I need get my allen keys out and get to the truss rod but, which way do I turn it and also, what do I do after I turn the rod.

Thanks guys

In the neck of a guitar there is a metallic rod called the truss rod, that controls the curvature of the neck.
