How To Identify Guitar Truss Rod Quality?

Quality of Truss Rod Is Influenced by What Factors?

Truss rod in guitar neck is a part that bears a certain level of force to reinforce the strength of guitar neck.

Therefore, the quality of guitar truss rod is crucial in guitar neck building.

What factors influence the quality of guitar truss rod?

One of the quick answers is quality of steel material. That is true. The quality of material is very important.

However, there are other factors that will determine the quality of guitar neck truss rod, too.

Challenges of Building Guitar Truss Rod

Although the structure of guitar neck truss rod is simple, that doesn’t mean building a truss rod is a simple work. There are challenges.

Firstly, the size of the truss rod should be accurate. The accurate size of cutting does not only make the truss rod easy to use, but also effectively control the weight.

Secondly, the nut and thread should be fine cut to ease the turning and ensure durability. Otherwise, the truss rod can lose its function in a short time.

Thirdly, welding is critical. Welding is a technology that can be easily ignored. Many even don’t pay so much attention to the welding of the hot rod truss rod. However, bad welding causes the defect for most of time. As a connection way, the strength of the welding determines the strength of the guitar truss rod. And if the welding is not so qualified, there will be invisible defects existed. When adjusting truss rod, it can be easily broken.

The above challenges are typical in building 2 way truss rod.
