| - | [* red] Grab an Allen wrench that will fit into the truss rod. Make sure to detune your guitar to prevent your strings from snapping during this process. |
| - | [* black] If your neck is bowed, you'll want to tighten the truss rod. You do this by turning your Allen wrench clockwise. If your neck has a hump to it, loosen the truss rod by turning the Allen wrench counterclockwise. |
| - | [* icon_note] The slot for the truss rod can be in a slot on the headstock, or under a plate on the headstock that you'll have to unscrew. Some guitars also have the truss rod located on the body of the guitar, at the base of the neck. |
