Guitar Truss Rod Adjustment Part 2

To adjust the truss rod, use the hex wrench supplied with your instrument. If neck is too concave (Figure A) turn the truss rod nut clock-wise.
If neck is too convex, (Figure B) turn the truss rod nut counter clock-wise.
Check your tuning, then re-check the gap with the feeler gauge.
Note: Adjust in small incremenfs of only '/4 furn af a time, and allow fime for the wood to settle before adjusting again (Figures D and E.).

Figure D. (Electric Guitar or Bass) Figure E. (Acoustic Guitar) If you meet excessive resistance, if your neck needs constant adjustment, or you're not comfortable adjusting it yourself, take your instrument to an authorized Fender Service Center.
String Height Adjustment (Action) for Electric Guitars & Basses
First, check your tuning. Next, using your ruler, measure the distance between the bottom of each string and the top of the 17th fret. Using the appropriate hex wrench, adjust the bridge saddles to height according to the recommendations of the chart below, then re-tune. Don't be afraid to experiment with the height a little bit, until it feels right (Figures F and G). If you play with a light touch, you can get away with lower action. If you play hard, you'll need a little higher action to avoid fret buzz and rattles.

If you are not comfortable performing any of these adiustments to your instrument, take it to an Authorized Fender Service Center for a "setup." Note: Setups and adiustments are considered to be routine maintenance, and as such, are not covered under warranty.
