I dearly love my TA but I have never had to do a truss rod tweak. However, lately it's been crazy humid here and the neck is suddenly slightly convex, resulting in severe feet buzz.
I've done truss rod adjustments before on other guitars, and it was really a routine thing. But on this drop top, there isn't any truss rod access at the headstock. Rather, it's at the point where the neck meets the guitar body's top, squeezed tightly behind the neck pickup, and the philips-screw style end is only partially exposed (half of it is below the guitar's top).
So please forgive my ignorance, but I've never seen that and I have no idea how to loosen the truss rod. I'm alarmed and shocked at the thought that I'd need to remove the neck in order to perform this simple task. And doesn't the neck need to be under normal tension for a proper truss rod setup?
Please help this poor baffled guy! Thanks in advance
