Trussrod adjustment...Jazzmaster

Post by RumorsOFsurF » Fri Feb 09, 2007 9:34 am

Is removal of the neck recommended when adjusting the trussrod?  Any tips? 
I have some fret buzz, I think due to the neck being too flat...

All of my other guitars adjust at the headstock...
Damn kids, get off my lawn!

don't remove the neck completely...just loosen the strings, and then the neckplate screws....lift the neck until you got enough room to use the screwdriver....you don't need to take it off completely....

putting a capo on the first fret to keep the strings from popping out of the Kluson tuners is also a good idea :)
