2) Truss rod cover / Truss rod adjustment

Truss rod cover:

The truss rod cover of a Warwick bass gives you - when needed - quick access to the truss rod. You’ll need a flat screwdriver to

unlock the integrated latch mechanism.

Truss rod adjustment:

A neck is setup correctly if it has a slight forward bow. You can easily verify this by pressing the lowest string at the 1st and last

fret and measuring the d

istance between the fret and the string at the 7th fret: it should read between 0.6 and 1 mm. This value is

independent from the action (height) setup of each individual string.

Turning the truss rod key clockwise (direction A) will tighten the truss rod and give the neck a back bow. Turning the truss rod key

counterclockwise (direction B) will loosen the truss rod and give the neck a forward bow. T

hese adjustments should be done in

small steps because the neck’s reaction is not instantaneous. You should check the results after approximately one hour and

probably check again the following day. Readjust the truss rod if needed.

A change in humidity, particularly during the changing of seasons or during strong weather fluctuations, is when one should pay

attention to the neck’s setup and the corresponding truss rod adjustment.

direction A = neck bending behind

direction B = neck bending in the front
