    Default Gargh!!!

    I hate cold weather! Its cocked up all the setups on my guitars so suddenly ive got fret buzz everywhere because the necks have shifted! Its not even like id set them up with a particularly low action either

    My #1 Music Man Axis has shifted big time after taking it out to a rehearsal. It doesn't help that it has a bare wood neck. Luckily a quick tweak on the truss rod sorts it out.

    True, its easily fixed but ive not been in the mood to fix it lately, might just slack off the strings a touch and put a few into storage mode till the weather warms up a bit :\

    I guess I'm lucky 'cause my Fib has a one piece neck(not to keen on that!)and by all accounts it should be moving.
    I guess there's no accounting for what individual pieces of wood do.
