Truss Rod Repair...?

[ARMANii]

Hey everyone. I fell in love with this G&L 5 string today. It was love at first sight. Price was wonderful, until I saw on the sticker; "Truss Rod does not adjust".

What will it take to fix this, and how much? Thank you in advance!

Hi.

It depends.

What's exactly wrong with the TR?

Detached anchor point=very bad.

Strippped rod=very bad.

Snapped rod=very bad

Badly seized nut=usually bad.

The nut bottomed out=easy fix.

The nut is stripped=easy fix.

By bad I mean either removing the FB or the skunk stripe is necessary. Or it means that a new neck is in order.


That's my opinion at least .

Sam

Great advice from T-bird. Usually a TR repair involves the FB coming off, and thats never too easy... probably be easiest just to buy a new neck. Depends. Like T said.
