Ghwar Posted April 18, 2006 Report Share Posted April 18, 2006 I know you can buy them in little bags from fender dealers and add them to some guitars.. Is it possible to add one to this guitar? it seems to have this little rosewood plug that might get in the way? here's what im talking about.. http://cgi.ebay.com/FENDER-VINTAGE-BULLET-...9QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tirapop Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 The bullet truss rods were on Strats from '71 to '81. I think your Malmsteen has the later dual action truss rod. I don't think you could retrofit it without major surgery. You could try to make a cosmetic bullet, but, since that signature neck never came that way and you'd ruin it's value. If you really want a bullet truss rod neck, try picking one up on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
