Sibob Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) Weren’t they typically supposed to be flush with the butt if the neck? Thoughts? Si Edited April 29, 2023 by Sibob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellzero Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 (edited) It's simply maxed in, and an easy trick is to simply put some flat washers under the bullet with some graphite grease to get it work as it should. It's something that happens very often with old Fender necks. Edited April 29, 2023 by Hellzero 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downunderwonder Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Somewhere there's a link to the suitable washer so you don't have to pay music equipment rates on 5c washers. As I recall they are a little odd in their proportions of overall and hole diameters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I recall they are a little odd in their proportions of overall and hole diameters. Try the securing washer from an old bicycle tyre valve. The old-fashioned sort of bike valve washer has exactly the correct dimensions. It is quite thick, but I would judge the truss rod would be restored to a flush position by doing so. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 I think somebody posted that the washers on bicycle brake blocks is an ideal fit too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
