steve-bbb Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 im in process of renovating and restoring an old acoustic six string should i release the truss rod tension whilst it is sitting for a prolonged period with no strings? ta Quote
Twincam Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 I think the jury is out on that one. Personally I would have just a little tension on it and have the neck straight or some relief. Bit its probably more important how you store the instrument. Quote
Saved Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 I would set the truss rod in "dead position".Staight in the midle.No bow no underbow Quote
