I have a Majesty 6 that I purchased in June. Seems like I have to make a slight truss adjustment every other week. My concern is that this may cause long term problems down the road. Otherwise I love the way the guitar plays. It's really a love hate relationship. It seems like it happens more frequently when I'm transporting the guitar but kind of a nuisance for such an expensive instrument. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
 
Do you keep it in a temperature and moisture controlled environment? That's really the key to not having to change the neck all the time.
 
Thank you for your reply. I live in New England, so it's kind of difficult to keep it in a completely controlled environment but I do my best. It just seems very temperamental considering I could practically throw my Ibanez prestige down the stairs and it will always play the same. 😂
 
No two pieces of wood are the same and some necks are more sensitive to changes in temperature or humidity than others. That means some necks will require very few truss rod adjustments and some will require more. Either way, it is not a problem and does not signify problems down the road. As long as you can make the appropriate adjustments when needed, there is no need to worry. And if it's a newly made neck it may take some time to settle down to its new life.

Thank you for the info. I had tuning stability issues early on that have since dissipated with time and use. Hoping that the neck will do the same. Your comments are always helpful. Thank you again for the reply. 👍
