Setup how-to?

Post by ric4003 »

OK, so my 4003 could use a good setup, but I'm not having good luck, luthier-wise, in my area....so I'd like to be able to do it myself. Are there any instructions for this that people can either direct me to, or tell me themselves? In particular, I'm not sure (1) what's involved in adjusting the double-trussrod neck, & (2) how to set the intonation, given that the intonation screws in the bridge are, shall we say, a bit tricky to get at with a normal screwdriver (does it take a special tool?). Thanks for any help!!

Go to the 'Utilities' to the left and click 'SEARCH' .......type in 'Set up'

This will bring up "How NOT to adjust truss rods"

That is the info you want/need.

Anything else , ask me in the Ask a R.L. heading
So you too want yours "ALAPWOB"?!?!
