SETUP

Setting up an electric guitar is an intricate and rewarding process. It takes time and practice to learn. Also,

some specialized tools are required for a perfect setup. Most music stores will have a guitar tech on duty to

perform a setup for you, if you do not wish to undertake this process yourself or do not have access to the

proper tools.

Truss Rod Adjustment

The first step in properly setting up your guitar is making sure you have a straight neck to work with. A hex

wrench tool is included in the kit. Sight along the fretboard to identify any curve in the neck. Insert the hex

wrench tool into the end of the truss rod at the headstock. Make small adjustments until the neck is straight.

A notched straight edge tool will sit directly on the fretboard and take the guesswork out of this process.
