I find that adjusting my truss rod for a relief difference of even one or two THOUSANDTHS of an inch makes a big difference in playing comfort. Relief that is too high makes it harder to play. if it's too low the fullness in sound lessens. A truss rod wrench for Taylor costs between $6-10. YouTube can teach you how to do this adjustment which only takes a minute or so. I think it is essential for acoustic players to know how to make this adjustment as it can make a pretty reasonable difference, especially if you have swings in temperature and humidity.
Thanks.
that's a good idea but since this is my 1st descent guitar I'll take it to a pro
and learn from him how to do it for next times
