What is the differance between the EB MM JPX-6 Truss Rod vs. Standard Top Mount (headstodk area)?

With a top mount or headstock truss rod you only move it a quater turn and it is NOT used to adjust you action.....normally you adjust your bridge/floyd rose tow bolts.

With the EB MM I understand the bottom truss rod wheel is used for both neck and action. Can anyone explain the differences PLEASE!!

This applies mainly to new instruments. We've got a great team of set up technicians that set up each instrument with precision before the instrument ships. After the instrument ships the neck may encounter back or fore bow (due to changes in temperature and humidity) which will inherently affect the action. A truss rod adjustment will then return the neck and action to factory spec as no other aspect of the set up would have changed.
