Official Luthiers Forum!

Sorry to be a bother-my new Steinert 12 string neck has the enclosed square adjustable rod. My forum search turned up a few comments on it, but not a full install discussion. If someone could link me to something, that will work. I already checked YT for a John Hall tutorial but did not find one.(also tried a YT search not limited to Blues Creek)Thanks.

To install the new Martin truss rod , all you need to do is flood the channel with tite bond when gluing on the fretboard. The truss rod will work well the glue just helps to keep it from rattling and buzzing.
I lay a bead of glue down the channel , let the rod set in that and add more glue along the top and apply the fretboard at the same time.
