Adee Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) Some might have seen this useful tool from Stu Mac call the 'Truss Rod Crank for Tele'. It makes Fender truss rod adjustment much easier if you have the cross slot style access at the neck heel ... Down side its a 'tad' pricey for a small bent piece of toughened steel !! Up side you can make simple neck adjustments without taking the neck off or loosening the screws ... you could also make your own if you have the know how. I use mine on my Fender JMJ and Performer Mustangs although some Jazz and Precisions have the same slots Edited March 25, 2020 by Adee 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adee Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 I picked up my daphne blue JMJ up for a steal (less than £600 used) ... ... although pick up might be a bit of a problem at the moment! Definitely worth looking around 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrumpymike Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Got one of these for a while back from AndyJr with the first bass he built for me. Works a treat! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Got mine going spare - none of my current basses have the need and I’m not doing work on other people’s basses any more. going to list it for £10 shipped if anyone’s bothered.
