TRC

[killdeer43]

I was a little recently to find out that the truss rod cover (TRC) on my D25 was upside down (thanks, Dave). I'm providing this photo to show the wrong way and now I'm a little to see all the dust!! Sheesh! The 'maid' must be off this month!!
But my point is to provide a service to all LTGers. Check your TRCs and check them now! Someone could get hurt!! :lol:

Heck, there's even a cat hair showing...and we don't have cats!!

And here's the correct way, on my D50.

It's a little cleaner, too! :wink:

Thanks for clearing up that for me ...wasn't sure which end is up on those things. :lol:
Those camera flashes really show up the dust don't they?
Swiffer to the rescue. :wink:

The bump on the top of the trussrod cover parallels the bump on the top of the headstock.

That's how I was taught, John. It's a mini headstock.
And don't feel bad Joe...a Guild Gallery cover features Kenny Wayne Shepard with his D55...
truss rod cover is upside down

I did take time to check everyone else while I was at it.
Little things, you know. :wink:

Here's why they get put on up-side-down! :twisted:

Joe,

Maybe you've got cat gut strings, just left a little hair hanging out, that's all.

Well now I'm as well. It seems that the TRC on my D15M is also upside down. But at least it's not dusty. :wink:

I didn't figure that out, but that is very good.

Come to think of it, I had just finished working on....Dust in the Wind. Guess I'll have to recall the "cleaning lady" tomorrow. :lol:

Hi 12stringer: The hollow part of the thing with the curves in it rests on you leg......and the hole should face whatever you're aiming at..... :mrgreen:

Well it looks like I don't have to worry about it as my GAD-25 has no TRC...truss rod is adjusted from in the guitar body...My 12 string on the other hand does have one (different shape) and I found out it was on upside down after I saw another online.
We're all lined up now though ...so I don't have to worry about getting any tickets from the TRC Police :lol:
