When should I start worrying about my neck bow and get the truss rod moved or w.e its slight, but i have never had to deal with it.
Best bet is to take it for a set up/ tune up so it doesn't become a problem, then have it checked yearly
Depress the first and last frets with the E string (or B) and look at the space between the 8th fret and the string. The gap should be around .015" or the thickness of a business card. If the gap is too big, tighten the truss rod (clockwise); if the gap is too small or the string touches, loosen the truss rod (counter clockwise). Make small adjustments like 1/8 or 1/4 turn. A little goes a long way.
TY Snake. I will add that it is normal to need to do a small truss rod adjustment tweak a couple times a yr. Near winter or mid Fall and near summer or mid spring.
