  • Is this ordinary??!!

    I have tryed for couple days now to adjust my DK1. Seems that adjusting trussrod has no affect, but only bad. And i found that in the trussrod pocket there is some wood??!! Heres pics:






    Hope you guys can see it on those pics..

    Buzz in allover the fretboard, and when not only B string is buzzin everywhere [img]/images/graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img] Dunno what to do from now on, i think i should wisit a tech? But give oppinnions, bc i really love that guitar.

    I just have such a good luck on these things [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

    Hi Lauri,try using a straight-edge to determine whether the neck is bowed or back-bowed then adjust the truss rod accordingly(tighten it if bowed/loosen it if back-bowed starting with 1/4 turns at a time!!),however if you are not 100% comfortable doing this kinda work then definitely take your guitar to a repair-man you trust!!Don't take any unneccesary chances!!Chucksplatter

      Sometimes it takes awhile for the truss rod adjustment to kick in. I'd wait like a day and see what happens.

        Dont get this wrong but i know how to adjust truss rod. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

        But there is something fishy, this is my diagnosis for to day: near the headstock there is this stringuide(floyd rose) and it is attached on the wood by two screws and the other screw is rolling freely, so there is no wood at all, so that is that piece of wood in the truss pocket. Because of this the E-A-D.. strings are higher. I can actualy see a light source when i look from side of the neck, its not much but still. Better take it to a tech..

              If you are talking about the nut (string guide) Just take out the screw that is turning freely glue a piece of a tooth pick into the screw hole and reinsert and tighten the screw.
