=== Truss Rods === | |||
1967 > 1985 = Static non-adjustable truss rod. | |||
1985 > 2008 = Single action truss rod. | |||
2008 > present = Dual action truss rod. | |||
Of course there were crossover periods while supplies were used up. For instance, we had an overstock of Parlor single action truss rods when we switched to dual action. So the Parlors were still single action for some time after 2008. Same with 00's and other 12 fretters. The glossy guitars got the dual action first while the satins used up the remaining single action. By 2010 everything was dual action. | |||
