Truss Rod Adjustment

[beej]

At this point, I'd say your best bet is to call CS and discuss the setup. I'm sure you got a good setup (my experience has always been that they're excellent), but if you want it lower, they can give you some tips and perhaps a shim if necessary.

Hi, remember me? I started the thread. Dang, I had no idea it was going to generate that many interesting comments Sorry about those of you with the stubborn buzz. My case is a positive one. My low strings were buzzing to ridiculous levels -and I had noticed that my action had gotten a bit lower then when I bought the guitar- I don't have a climate control practice area so I suspected my truss rod was the issue. I followed the directions given to me in this post which is no more than a 1/4 counter-clockwise and the buzz is gone and my Axis is as good as when I bought it. Couldn't be happier! THANKS beej and everyone else for the tips!

Very happy to help ... glad that worked out for ya.

Good luck and hope the shim works out.

I might post some Axis setup basics as soon as I have time in the next few weeks. There are quite a few misconceptions out there about that marvel of a guitar setup-wise - it is it's own beast and requires some thought when tampering with the setup. But once you dialed it to your own specs, well, it rawks.
