Lowden S32J ... où trouver la clef pour le truss rod

j'ai acquis il n'y pas longtemps cette guitare, absolument sublime

malheureusement elle n'est pas livré avec la clef permettant d'accéder au truss rod, pour bomber très légèrement le manche

Et Lowden c'est un accès très particulier, quelqu'un saurait peut-être où on peut en trouver

Cette guitare est absolument sublime de son et de look, un équilibre incroyable sur tout le spectre, et le système d'amplification masqué, garde toute l'épure de cette merveilleuse guitare.

Amplifié il faut bien régler les graves sinon il peuvent rapidement tourner.

ma prochaine question à Lowden, quand je passerai à la version supérieure, c'est "dis Georges la 50 tu la fais sur mesure.

Car pour mes petites mains, le manche le plus sympa que j'ai essayé c'est une Fusion Mapple Cordoba, la petite guitare qui dépanne.

Edit modération

Photos sur demande, il n'y a que les boutons de volume qui ne soit pas très esthétique, mais on les voit peu.

Ca en fait des questions.   bonne journée

Bonjour également.

Je me suis permis d'éditer ton message, car les petites annonces vente-achat-échange sont régies par certaines règles que tu trouveras en-tête de la section ad hoc.


Au fait, pour ta question ajustement trussrod, Google m'a donné la réponse ci-dessous, tirée semble-t-il du site Lowden :


"NECK PROFILE ADJUSTMENTS

Your Lowden guitar is fitted with an integral truss rod that provides greater neck stability. The adjustment of this rod is to obtain optimal neck relief (not action adjustment) and we recommend that a professional technician make these adjustments.


NECK PROFILE AND TRUSS ROD ADJUSTMENTS (RECOMMENDED SETTINGS)

Before having a string action adjustment it is important that the neck relief is checked and corrected if necessary.

First check neck relief: To do this, press bass E string onto 1st and 13th frets simultaneously and observe the tiny hairline gap between the bottom of the string and the crown of the 6th fret- this gap is the amount of neck ‘relief’ For most playing styles relief should be between 0.15mm and 0.25mm. If the relief is too large the action may be too high and/or buzzing may occur when playing around the 5th to 10th frets. If the neck is too straight, the action may be too low and buzzing may occur when playing 1st to 4th frets. NB: It is very common for new guitars to develop a high playing action during the first 6 months as the string tension begins to take effect. Often the truss rod will need tightened in new guitars after a few months to correct neck relief and action.

If neck relief is less than the above measurements ( ie; almost straight or even slightly convex ) then the truss rod needs turned anti-clockwise using a 5mm allen key ( ball end type usually makes this job easier) While string tension has been slackened off, turn the truss rod adjustor (located in the internal neck block approximately under the 16th fret) a little at a time and re-tune until the correct neck relief has been achieved. (note, doing this will likely raise the action and therefore it may be necessary to lower the bridge saddles afterwards.)

If neck relief is too much (ie; the neck is more than 0.25mm concave along its length) then the truss rod should be turned clockwise until the neck has straightened sufficiently. Doing this will lower the action and it may be necessary to raise the saddles afterwards.

NB: Lowden guitars made between 1976 and 1993 and from 2004 to date have been fitted with single action aluminum channel type truss rods. Lowden guitars from 1994 to 2003 were most often fitted with a dual action truss rod. For these, there is a “mid-point” of adjustment where the truss rod is neutral and where the adjustor will feel slack.



ACTION ADJUSTMENTS

The height of the strings above the fingerboard is known as the action and directly affects the ease and enjoyment of playing your guitar. Although your Lowden guitar leaves the workshop with optimal action height, it is possible that after some ‘settling in’ period adjustments need to be made. We strongly advise that these only be undertaken by a qualified technician. Ask us (or your dealer) for advice. Workshop standard action settings are considered “low/medium” and are 2.5mm (bass E) and 2.0mm (treble E) ... measured between the crown of the 12th fret and the underside of the string."
