I’ve always heard that you should just keep cranking until the guitar sounds good. I have a special impact wrench that I use for truss rod adjustments. Of course, after real tight comes real loose. One or two quick pulls on the trigger and you should be good. 600 ft lb impact with 1/2” drive is best.

Thanks for doing that.

I've demonstrated to many customers the same thing that was demonstrated for you. It is helpful to their understanding of what a truss rod is and how it works. |

Aside from that, one can easily tell by how much one has to turn the nut in order to observe an effect: a lot, single rod; little, double rod. "Trade secret" revealed. |

Agreed, but the subject line was misleading.
