On this episode I’ll teach you how to adjust a vintage Fender style truss rod that requires the strings to be loosened and the neck lifted off its’ pocket.

This of all guitar set-up tasks is the one that a lot of people are for some reason scared to do. Rest assured, after watching this video, taking your time, following these instructions - you will learn how to do it - and if you were scared of doing it before, you won't be anymore!

This is the episode 7 in our series "Zen & The Art Of Guitar Maintenance", dedicated to teach you detailed techniques how to make the most out of your instrument. Remember - a well cared for guitar will inspire you to play more... and playing more equals at becoming a better player!

Despite the fact that I'm using on these videos instruments from a variety of brands for demonstration purposes, I'm not affiliated with any of them... ... except my own brand Ruokangas, of course.

Thank you Harri Koski / Mad Professor Amplification for borrowing this guitar to us!
