While looking over my F5 type mandolin last night I sighted down the neck and found what looked like a pretty good bow. #With the strings held down at the first and body joint fret, I measured the relief at the 7th fret as about .007. #Is that too much?.. not enough?.. just right? #If I need to adjust the truss rod (I've done it on guitars so I ain't skeert) are there any Mando related tricks I need to be aware of. #On guitars I'll normally just give it about 1/8 of a turn then let it set for awhile before I do anything else.
Thanks,
Steve Perry
