Hey,

Just not 100% sure on which way the truss rod is installed in EBMM's as obviously you're adjusting it at traditionally the 'wrong' side of the neck.

I have some relief in my neck that I want to relieve (i.e. its curving 'up' a bit too much for and I want to straighten it a bit) so which way should I be turning it. Towards the volume knobs/switches or towards the "player"?

Hope this makes sense! Cheers.
 
Check the F.A.Q.'s on the Ernie Ball site they have that info there I beleive

Where are you looking? The only thing I can find is Wiring schematics!
 
Q: What is the string height off the neck supposed to be?
A: The approximate factory settings are 1/16" or 1.5875mm from the bottom of the string to the top of the 12th fret.

Players can adjust the action lower or higher to fit their playing style. Clockwise to raise the fretboard, counter clockwise to lower
See....
