LITTLEWING Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I just acquired an active Aria Pro 2 IBG four string which laid in a case under a bed for years ( the battery was dated 9/2008 and STILL worked, no corrosion or anything!) Apart from a dodgy crackly socket (new one on it's way as I write) it sounds, looks and plays fantastic after a small relief and action tweak. (oh, and a small shim to tilt the neck to get decent saddle height). However, I couldn't move the truss rod nut at first and after a while would only go about 10% of a turn either way before going dead tight. I've 'smidged' a spit of WD40 down inside the nut to hopefully reach the thread to soak for a few days. In people's experience is WD good for the job or does Duck Oil perform better. Any other tried and tested fixes? I'd just like the relief to be nearly flat and go from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grangur Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I had a bass in the loft. Untoched for 25 years. The TR was stuck when I got it out. WD40 worked with that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
