    Truss Rod Maxxed Out On A New P-Bass Neck

    Spoke to Warmoth.  The tech said that there should be 3-4 full turns in the truss rod.  He suggested that it would probably be OK to push past the stoppage.  It made me nervous, but it worked.  Thanks for the replies.

    Truss Rod Maxxed Out On A New P-Bass Neck

    The truss rod on my new Warmoth P-Bass neck is fully tightened.  The set-up is good now with light gauge strings.  But if I switch to heavier gauge strings, or I need to tighten the neck in the future, I can't.  Is there anything that can be done about that? Thanks.
