intense rattling/truss rod question

[Matt R Miller]

I just got a 6 string Peavey Grind (neck-thru) and the B string rattles badly and most of the other strings rattle when playing on the first few frets. I put the action pretty high up, and it still rattles a little. I want to eliminate the rattle and be able to lower the action. Which way and how much should I turn the truss rod?

[Matt R Miller]

No, I've never really had to make any major adjustments on any previous basses...any info/advice is much appreciated.

if it matters the B string is pretty close to fretted without me having to touch it.

Sounds like the nut has really deep string slots

I dunno what you can do then...

[Matt R Miller]

it's really close to the fingerboard at the first fret

there are 2 truss rods...loosen both by a 1/4 turn?
