Hi Guys,

I have just moved to Canada and taken all my guitar stuff. When I set everything up, my Axis action was so low that I had to adjust the truss rod quite a lot - but that is sorted now!

My question is that the FR tension is very stiff at the moment and I want it to be looser or easier to use - but the action is perfect now! What do I need to do to keep the current action and reduce the FR tension??

Cheers,
Jim

Damn Canada! (haha)

If you've adjusted the truss rod the neck should be back where it was. So if you want to adjust the trem stiffness, you'll have to remove a spring or unscrew the trem claw screws slightly. And of course, re-tune, etc. until the tension equalizes again.
