The Neck Relief Gauge is a quick and easy way to
measure and set a guitars neck relief/curvature when adjusting the truss rod.
The two feet and the indicator tip sit on the top of the frets, and the
indicator reads the amount of bow in the neck. Adjusting the truss rod
increases or decreases the amount of the relief in the neck.
Step 1 : Zero the Neck Relief Gauge on an accurate
flat plate, straightedge or surface steel jointer. To zero the dial indicator,
loosen the black dial lock (located at the approximate 1 oclock position of
the dial). Turn the knurled dial face so the zero mark is lined up with the
needle and re-tighten the dial lock. Note that the zero will not be in the 12
oclock position.
Step 2: Place the tool on the guitar neck with one end
on the first fret and the other end on the twelfth fret. As you adjust the
truss rod, the dial will read the relief in thousandths of an inch. A reading
of “zero” means that the fret tops are flat (zero relief). The indicator is off
center so it will sit on the fifth or the sixth fret. Adjust the truss rod
until you reach the desired relief.
