KevB Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 I didn't adjust the truss rods on either my P or J basses when I joined a band that played half a step down, seem to play and sound fine though obviously not gigged for ages now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s only really an issue if you’re fussed enough to make it one. Some guitarists use multiple tunings freely at gigs, and I don’t recall members of the audience ever complaining that the neck relief doesn’t sound right. Strictly speaking you should of course (especially if it’s to be a permanent change), but if you don’t nobody will come to serious harm.
