I once bought a NOS Fender Telecaster from a dealer that had a stuck truss rod. I took it to an authorized Fender repair center, and after being criticised for not being able to adjust my own truss rod, the gentleman proceeded to apply excessive force and broke the rod. I ended up with a new replacement neck from Fender.
