jmrentis Posted June 27, 2005 Report Posted June 27, 2005 There has been a few people that had that question. There are also a few people that say that they are not needed and they are not going to use one, these peoplecause big debate because this is terrible advice and can cause new builders a lot of problems and wasted money! You need one is about all there is to say. The people that say they are not going to use one seem to never come back and and say that it worked, noone evers hears from them again! I don't know if they are embarrassed about it failing or they went crazy trying to make it work or what. They were invented to help the guitar neck to function properly. Without it would bow and would either be completely ruined or so bowed or twisted that it would be difficult to play. So please trust me use a truss rod, it is the best way to go. Good luck!

thedoctor Posted June 27, 2005 Report Posted June 27, 2005 No, no, no, hugh ugh. He answered his own question better than any of us could with his spelling. It be a trust rod. THAT is why I put them in. I don't trust myself to get it perfect. Quote
