Schön, dass es auch einen deutschen Gitarrenbauer gibt, der sein Handwerk versteht und dies in ästhetisch hochwertigen Videos der Öffentlichkeit präsentiert. Ich schaue mir bereits seit Jahren die Videos der einschlägigen Gitarrenbauer (Crimson Guitars, Ted Woodford, 6ircle guitars) an und habe mich immer gefragt, warum es aus unserer geographischen Ecke nichts in dieser Richtung gibt. Ich habe schon ein Abo dagelassen und freue mich auf weitere Videos. Tolle Arbeit!

Not all necks can get their trussrod removed without huge damage/work. For instance double action trussrod necks are often having the trussrod glued and the nut cannot be unscrewed/removed. You have to open the neck to get it removed and it's a huge amount of work.

I've been playing bass for over 20 years and adjusting a truss rod is something I have never felt comfortable doing... 1. I don't want to ruin my guitar by doing something i have no idea how to do. 2. Most will say WOW you have been playing for 20 and don't know how to do adjustments to your instruments... Great job on the repair, If it wouldn't cost an arm and leg to ship to your area from The states. I'd love to have you do a repair on a bass i own. Cheers mate!!!!

Petrek Guitars..In fact it is not a ''Squier by Fender Bullet Precision Bass''....It is in fact a Squier Bullet One bass made by FujiGen Gakki in Japan...In 1981-82, FujiGen obtained the Fender Japan contract which lasted until 1996-97....FujiGen also built Orville by Gibson under contract and Epiphone Japan solid body guitars, some Gretsch models and their own branded FGN guitars. FujiGen still manufactures OEM guitars for companies like Ibanez and Epiphone....but the Squier Bullet One was never built by Fender...

Very nice work. Do you have any ideas for a stripped truss rod nut in an Ibanez with a dual action rod? The Grabber tools don't quite work. I've read about putting wax on wrench, putting a bit of epoxy into the stripped nut, and letting it dry around the wrench. I haven't been brave enough to try that yet.

Thanks for your Feedback Mark. Maybe....The owner has this Bass fro more than 20 years now and he asked me to fix it.But if you ask me for my personal opinion... I would always prefer repairing the original Parts. And there is always a way to get things back on the Track🙂 Best Regards Nik

Beautiful work! Amazing restoration, but would it have been possible to make it adjustable at both ends? For practical reasons, I prefer adjusting truss rods from the top

Thanks a lot for your positive Feedback Max. In this case it's a one way vintage Trussrod. There are sometimes adjustable fro the Headstock and sometimes from the end of the Neck depending on the Model and year. From both sides .... I have never heard about this. But sure if you have the Nut at the headstock it's much easier... Best Regards Nik

Why not just install a bullet style truss rod instead of filling the hole?

Thanks a lot for your question. Because the adjustment Nut is on the opposite Side where the Neck is attached to the body. Best Regards Nik

Someone must’ve really been emotionally attached to that super cheap bass to have a super expensive truss rod job done on it.
