I'm not looking for trade secrets or anything of the sort, just trying to wrap my melon around a question I have.
I understand this beautiful EBMM neck in front of me is exquisitely straight carved piece of wood (two pieces in my case). To counteract the string tension there is basically a torsion bar installed which allows for adjustments based on weather and user tastes, so I can play the old whaling bar in Antarctica, hop on an icebreaker and make my next show in Brazil, all the while maintaining the action (on the bass, not the whaling babe versus the Amazon hottie).
Okay, so it's the Winter of my discontent and I need to turn it to the left. When it's Springtime for Hitler I may need to turn it to the right, etc...
So how is it possible to max it out?
I keep hearing (elsewhere) about poor sods who's truss rods are maxed out. What do they do, just keep turning left, left, left, left, left, left?
Doesn't the neck double back on itself?
