Re: Don\'t touch that damn truss rod!!! RANT
[ QUOTE ]
My electrics seem to require adjustment twice a year. I had tons of relief at the 8th fret. I tightened it just over a quarter turn and it is sitting at .010 again. I will check it in a day or so to be sure it didn't move some more. I imagine sometime this fall I will have problems with all the notes fretting out or buzzing in the middle of the fretboard. At that time I will have to loosen the truss rod a bit over a quarter turn. This happens about this time every year, I don't imagine the cycle will change anytime soon.

My Fender Double Fat Strat seems to need an adjustment about twice a year, also. It mostly sits on a stand in my bedroom, though, and not in its case like my others, so it's more prone to the environment/temperature changes.
