hi dude....i have a electric guitar...but i'm not using it from last 6 and more months. and few day befor i use it i find that distance between feart bord and string are very big...it's not like that before...what should i do?
u can try changing the string heights at the bridge. better get it done at some guitar service centre (the place u got it from maybe) coz it just might cause intonation probs nd buzzing also u can suggest them adjusting the truss rod.but never try to do it urself. my friend tried to do thatnd next thing was as dat the neck was loose in his hand lol
the truss rod isn't a tool to adjust action, its to set the action/neck. its unlikely that you'll need to adjust the truss (unless your neck is bowed). if it turns out that you do need to adjust the rod, please take it to a person who knows what he's doing, unless you want a snapped neck. like prit_undead mentioned, you can adjust the saddle on the bridge to change your action.
i agree with the rest..try adjusting the bridge height first...if that induces buzzing of the strings, then you should take it to a professional for intonation adjustments...and ya, keep away from the truss rod..
hey hasnt used it for 6 months, and the strings were still attached, so id say it got warped.. the necks prolly bent, i think im not a pro, so i dont know what you do then...ask the guys..
Next time u put away your guitar for 6 months, make sure you loosen all the strings - else the neck is bound to bend due to the sustained stress.
Try Adjusting The Bridge Height .if The Neck Has Bow Dont Do The Truss Rod Adjustment Yourself Unless You Have Done It First.i Have A Very Bad Experience With The Truss Rod Adjustment!!!
My Yamaha Acoustic Has The Same Problem Distance Between Strings And Fret Board Has Increased.i Play It Everyday I Don't Know How It Happened.problem Is I Don't Have Option Of Adjusting Bridge Because It Is Fixed One. The Neck Also Does Not Have Any Bow.so Pls Suggest Me A Remedy To This

i knew what a luthier is. i said in pune there is no good guitar shop so how there can be a luthier in pune.anyways my guitar is fine now adjusted the truss rod a little bit .
