Hey Guys This is a shout out to Mark and all of the acoustic builders..I've made a little video about the truss rod dilemma I have and something I would like to understand before I carry on. So it's a...

@steveadams. Sorry Steve. I'm no expert in this at all. There is some angle on the neck but I'm not sure that it is as much as it seems in your video. I would expect that the wee barrel nut on the end...

Hey @russ Thanks for the reply..as you can see from the video I'm inclined to agree!! cheers Steve

@steveadams I haven't built an acoustic yet, so can't comment on the angle. I do rembemer watching a video of Mark making that type of truss rod. I'm not sure, but maybe the bottom rod should be welde...

Understood...thanks Mark Will carry on but promise to keep the wig locked away!!!!!
