Truss Rod Adjustment
The neck is setup correctly if it has a slight forward bow. You can verify the neck’s relief by pressing the lowest string at the first and last fret
(simultaneously). The gap between fret and string should be approximately between 0.1 and 0.3 mm at the 9th fret. This value is indepen-
dent from the actual string action setup of the instrument.
Turning the truss rod wrench clockwise (direction A) will tighten the truss rod and give the neck a back bow; turning the wrench counterclock-
wise (direction B) will loosen the truss rod and give the neck a forward bow. These adjustments should be done in small steps because the
neck’s reaction is not instantaneous. You should check the results after approximately one hour and probably check again the following day.
Readjust the truss rod if needed. One should pay attention to the neck’s setup and the corresponding truss rod adjustment particularly during
the change of seasons or during strong weather fluctuations and resulting changes in humidity.
4) GraphTech BLACK TUSQ™ XL Nut
From June 2010 all Framus electric guitars are equipped with GraphTech BLACK TUSQ XL™ nuts. GraphTech BLACK TUSQ XL nuts have a
Teflon lubrication impregnated all the way through the material, which improves the tuning performance of the guitar significantly, especial-
ly when using a vibrato or bendings. The highly resonant BLACK TUSQ XL material also brings out hidden harmonics in the guitar.
