Am having great fun discovering the techy side of my guitars. One strat and
one Washburn elctric accoustic. The strat is set up not too bad but though
the truss rod feels ok to move it doesnt seem to do anything. There is
always relief in the neck. I dont think its a prob but I would like to
remove some relief to see if it plays better. Also the Washburn. Its a
Festival series and now that I know more about the techy side I dont think
its a great guitar but the action has always been so high that its a pain
to play. Now having the confidence I have tightened the truss rod to lessen
relief but again, nothing really happens. Do necks get formed over the
years and not respond to adjustment? How much difference would thinner
guage strings make? This forum is great by the way.
