Thanks Warren. I have been playing banjo for over 30 years now and I do tackle all the set up tasks myself with the exception of the trussrod. I had knowledge of how it works but did not know by how much and in which direction to adjust it. So I left it alone. Your excellent demonstration has made it clear to me. Thanks again.

Great video, Warren. Many banjos don't have top-adjusted truss rods, though, so their necks must be removed to access the rod. It'd be cool if you'd show how those are adjusted properly, too, including how the neck is properly removed and restored.

Very useful for my beginner banjo as having it set up would cost more than half what I bought it for. (although I've spent that much upgrading it's parts) Thanks.

7:13 The string tension pulls the neck back, which curves the truss rod. Tightening the truss rod straightens the neck back out. It works.

Mr Yates If I have a string that is touching the first fret which is causing it to buzz. Would a tension rod adjustment help this? A friend who plays banjo suggested I place a shim in the groove of the nut to slightly raise the string that is too low. Thanks for any help you can give.

One of my banjos has a really tight trus rod. To turn it in either direction takes a bit of force. Is there any way to help loosen it up more?

What size Allen wrench if used on a two piece truss rod for a banjo?
@NCyates

I would raise the nut with a piece of paper. In my shop, I would remake the nut because I have everything to do it with. Out in the field, it would be paper. I would never put anything in the groove long term unless it was just for the night.

Well here is where the problem is with that; though the prewars were like that, if the rod ends up loose once the action is right, the neck will be dead. If the neck has too much back bow to it, then you have to be able to push it forward. I have had to build many necks because of it. Most all of the prewars necks are in a safe somewhere and new necks with two way rods are on them. That in no way means that if you want yours loose, that you can't have it that way.

One truss rod next to another (floppy truss rod floppy truss rod floppy truss rod floppy truss rod). Two truss rods along side yet another (floppy truss rod floppy truss rod floppy truss rod floppy truss rod).
