ADJUSTMENTS
Your
instrument
has
been
carefully
adjusted
for
accurate
intona-
tion
and
playing
ease
at
the
Peavey
factory.
However,
your
playing
style or paying requirements may necessitate additional adjustments
at some time in the future. These adjustment should be made by
your
Peavey
Dealer.
However,
with
a
little
care
and
by
adhering
closely to the following instructions, you may attempt these ad-
jusiments yourself,
CAUTION:
PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND INSTRUCTIONS.
THOROUGHLY
BEFORE
ATTEMPTING
ANY
ADJUSTMENTS.
ADJUSTING TORSION ROD
All guitar necks must have a slight amount of bow to keep the
strings
from
buzzing
on
the
frets.
To
set
the
“straightness”
of
the
neck, a Peavey torsion rod wrench No. 75031006 must be used
(available from a Peavey Accessory Center)
Tune the instrument to standard (A-440) pitch
Fret the sixth string (E) at the first and last trets.
Check
for
clearance
between
the
string
and
the
eighth
fret
Clearance should be no less than 012” and no more than
025"
To
increase
clearance,
loosen
(counterclockwise)
the
torsion
rod
nut.
Less
clearance
(straightening
of
the
neck)
is
ac-
complished by tightening the nut
CAUTION:
ROMs
a
IT IS NOT USUALLY NECESSARY TO ROTATE THE
TORSION ROD NUT MORE THAN ONE FULL TURN
IN EITHER DIRECTION. ONE-QUARTER TO ONE-
HALF TURN IS NORMALLY SUFFICIENT TO MAKE
MOST ADJUSTMENTS. EXCESSIVE ROTATION MAY
CAUSE DAMAGE TO NECK AND TORSION ROD. IF
EXCESSIVE
FORCE
IS
NECESSARY
TO
ROTATE
TORSION
ROD
NUT,
YOU
SHOULD
CONSULT
YOUR
PEAVEY DEALER OR THE FACTORY BEFORE ANY
FURTHER ADJUSTMENT IS MADE.
Repeat Steps 1 through 5 until proper clearance has been
reached.
