Two-Way Truss Rod Adjustment
If you are performing a set-up or adjustment on a Fretlight please understand
that every Fretlight guitar has a two-way truss rod. Turning the truss-rod
performs the following action:
1.
Clockwise-turning the truss rod in a clockwise direction will induce the neck
to form a back bow.
2.
Counter Clockwise-turning the truss rod counter clockwise will induce a
forward or “upward” bow.
NOTE:
When turning the truss rod from back bow to forward bow (or vice
versa) please realize that the truss rod will go slack. It will turn freely, as if it is
loose or stripped. After 4 to 5 more quarter turns of the truss rod it will “catch”
and begin to tighten and bow the neck in the opposite direction.
Other Set-Up Concerns
A Fretlight is a normal guitar in every way except for the polymer fretboard
and cable running from the neck to the back of the body. You can remove the
Fretlight cable from the neck if needed by pulling it straight out from the neck.
Please only use water to clean any finger oil or residue from the fretboard. DO
NOT use any solvents, oils, or fluids other than water at any time. If you have
any other questions regarding the Fretlight you are working on please feel
free to contact Customer Support at 800.575.6511.
