The neck of my guitar is not straight but i alreadyadjusted the trusrod

Edgar,
How are you determining that the neck is not straight? If you are thinking the neck is not straight because the strings are at different heights along the neck, the problem may be neck tilt or saddle and/or bridge height. You can raise or lower the bridge system or string saddles to add or subtract string height along the neck. In addition, neck tilt (particularly easy to adjust on bolt-on necks) refers to the angle that the guitar neck exits the neck pocket on the guitar body. This also effects string height.
Conversly, if you see a distict bow or bend in the neck when you look down the top edge of the neck, the truss rod may indeed be involved. Generally, most players like a little bit of "relief" in the neck. That is to say, a little bit of a concave bow. I prefer a relatively straight neck with very little relief. Just preference.
However, you mentioned you already adjusted the truss rod. Make sure the truss rod is functional. If you loosen the bolt or hex on the truss rod and the concave bow on the neck gets more pronounced, it is likely that you truss rod is ok. If you make adjustments on the bolt and there is little or no change on the neck relief, it is possible that your truss rod is not functioning or is broken. It is very possible to break a truss rod by over tightening but it would take some real effort to do. Still, it is possible.
Check out those points and see if it helps.
Confirm truss rod is working.
Check bridge height and saddle height.
See if adjusting neck tilt is possible on your model guitar.
Good luck.

Need to adjust the neck on a 7 string bass, a conklin.

It appears to have 2 trussrods protruding from beside the nut on the headstock. These set the straightness of the neck. Turning the nuts on the end with usually a 1/4 inch allen wrench is the adjustment. A slight turn to the right brings the middle of the neck up, a slight turn to the left brings the middle down, if laying on a table looking down the neck. I would prop something under the middle to avoid unnatural flexing while I do it. Be extremely careful and allow the wood to sit a spell between adjustments. Make take some time to get it right.

Fret buzz on new fender david gilmour Nos strat

fret buzz can usually be cured by adjusting the tension rod, unless the neck is permanently warped from excessive heat/humidity (from, say, being left in a car on a summer day).


hold the headstock up to your face, and look down the neck. you should see that the neck is uneven around the frets that buzz. if the neck appears straight when viewed from the headstock, down toward the body, then the strings are just too low, and the bridge should be raised. if you see unevenness in the neck, however, when viewed this way, you should attempt to use the tension rod to straighten the neck.

the tension rod can be adjusted with the hex bolt that pokes out at the base of the headstock, right from under the top of the fretboard. use an allen key to gently turn the tension rod either way until the neck begins to straighten out. if the tension rod cannot straighten the neck, then the neck is warped from heat/humidity.

My celebrity deluxe was damaged a while ago. Neck separated from body. Was repaired but action(neck) not like before, strings farther from neck, harder to play. Can neck be reset with better action like...

Yes, a competent Luthier should be able to reset it... HOWEVER it may just need a truss rod adjustment. The truss rod bends the neck slightly to set string height in the middle of the neck.

I need to know how the five way switch works. I don't know which switch position turns on which pick ups.

In a guitar with 3 pickups a 5 way switch works like this. With the switch all the way forward( towards the tuning pegs) the pickup closest to the tuning pegs or end of the neck is completely on ( if your volume control is all the way on). The next position (moving away from the tuning pegs or neck) is a combination of the neck pickup and the middle pickup. The third position moving away from the neck is completely the middle pickup. The fourth position is a combination of the middle pickup and the bridge ( where the strings are fastened) and the fifth position is completely the bridge.

Buzz at the e6 string 11th fret

Have you changed strings on it? Old strings get worn spots in them from rubbing on the frets that will cause these type of symptoms. If you put new strings on and get the same issue, check your neck relief (the amount of bow in the neck) to do this, hold your low E string at the first fret, and at the 12th or 14th fret. The neck should have a slight bow in the middle that puts it between 1/16" and 1/8" or so away from your string. If it does not have enough bow in it, you can adjust the truss rod. Most guitars use an allen wrench for this, it will be inside the soundhole on an acoustic usually, and on an electric it is normally on the headstock under a cover. There are many how-to's online about adjusting a truss rod, the key is to do it very slowly, only do about a 1/2 turn a day, retune, check it again the next day. Loosen the truss rod to put more neck relief, tighten to straighten the neck. If this still doesn't fix you up, let me know, and I'll tell you where to go from there.

How to adjust the neck on a fender jazz bass

depending on the model you will see a place for an allen wrench. it will be either on the end of the neck half way under the body, or most likely at the headstock just under the fret board. Find the correct size allen wrench and turn it about a 1/4 turn at a time. im not sure why your looking to adjust your neck so i cant really say what to look for.

I need a replacement neck plate for the Washburn N4

Hello, I actually have two extra necks that I bought on Ebay a very long time ago. No idea is they are original or not. I will post one of them on Ebay. I bought them for a project which I finished. I had also contact Washburn a while back because I was looking for the neck but they will not sell the neck unless you send them the body. They explained that each neck is fitted to the body. I believe them because none of my 4 N4 have the same neck. I can not interchange them. I am starting the bid on Ebay for $400. If you want the other neck let me know. [email protected]
