Neck Truss Rod
Is my guitar neck damaged?!?
Hello. I have a Gibson Les Paul GT. I was wondering if my neck is damaged. The neck has a dual action truss rod. I was playing it and I decided to knock on the back part of the neck and it sounded hallow kind of like the truss rod is loose or some. So what is going on?! Are all dual action truss rod necks like this?!
Usually, there's no cause for alarm at all. What probably is going on is that the truss rod needs just a tiny bit of tightening to correct a vibrating/loose truss rod.
If, on the other hand the rod is broken, you do have a major repair on your hand. This is very, very unlikely as it takes some hard over tightening to damage the truss rod.
Take your guitar to a qualified dealer or guitar tech ... or learn how to do these really basic adjustments yourself. It is very easy once you learn how. You can learn more below when you feel like it.
