[quote name='nash' post='125458' date='Jan 22 2008, 02:20 PM']only one truss rod on the bongo 6er. dont 6ers normally have 2?[/quote]

My Streamer LX VI only has one 'rod. It does, however have two non-adjustable reinforcing rods (one either side of the truss-rod) IIRC!
That said, it's got a Wenge neck, and they aren't apt to being unduly troubled by humidity/temperature variations.
I guess it's also a function of inherent neck stability- If the neck's stable/ adjustable enough with one rod, why complicate it with two?
More slender necks may well need two rods. You're right, it's not uncommon. I'm fairly sure I've seen twin rods on Conklin and Yamaha 6-ers, and a lot of customs seem to have them.
