Guitar Truss Rod Nut
Elec Guitar Truss Rod Adjustment - what to do when the tensioner is loose and there is no difference string fret 7 @?
My brothers guitar Elec (Yamaha) low E string vibrates / 1 touches the fret when plucked. I loose the tensioner and it helped a little, but still vibrates (truss rod nut completely off). I raised the action the low E string (without success). Now there is virtually no difference between the 7th fret and string, when the 1st and 17th frets are pressed. And now? Replace the nut? Use as a toboggan? Jason
If the string buzzes on the first fret, it sounds like you have a problem with the nut, not the truss rod. Tension the tensor should only be changed if you have a significant curve in the neck of his guitar. When the strings are in the field, the neck should be straight, or has a very slight curve falling deeper in the middle and upper fret ends. The action is determined by the height of the bridge and nut. It is likely that both are very low on the guitar his brother. Alternatively, the height or the angle of the neck to the guitar can be wrong. A fix (guitar pick), under the neck in the pocket of the body can tilt it back enough to solve your problem. If it is glued on one arm Yamaha lucky, you may be outta.
