*Generally, there’s no truss-rod in the classic guitar. We recommend asking a repair specialist to adjust
the neck.
String height adjustment (for electric guitar/bass)
String height is controlled by using a wrench to raise or lower the small allen screws on either side of the saddle.
For PE and TA type guitars, string height is controlled by raising or lowering the two studs on either side of the
bridge, using a slot head (-) screwdriver.

th
fret with the harmonic (achieved by holding a finger lightly against
string directly above the fret and removing immediately after plucking the string, which produces a bell like tone).
These two notes should be the same pitch, If the fretted note is higher (sharp) increase the string length by
turning the intonation screw clockwise and anticlockwise if the fretted note is lower (flat). Repeat the same
procedure for each string.
Adjustment of Vibrato spring (for electric guitar)
When movement of a vibrato (tremolo) arm is excessively hard, the spring inside body should be adjusted.
Remove the cavity cover plate from the back of the body, using a Phillips head (+) screwdriver, turn the spring
tension adjustment screw and adjust the length of spring. Turned to the left, tension will become weak and the
motion of arm will become lighter. Retune the guitar to the proper pitch and check the angle.
*If the screws are loosened too much, the back end of a bridge will be raised (1). Please adjust bridge carefully,
balancing the tension of springs and strings, since the state of (2) is proper.
