    How to lubricate a Ti trussrod

    Hi TB, For my 2022 summer build-off project I am using a titanium dual-action trussrod from Tatsuta in Japan.

    Suggestions for old-school Fender truss-rod and setup

I currently have it setup with a relief which looks around 0.13/0.14 at 7th fret - checking with automotive gauges - and an action around 2.5mm at the 17th fret for the E string.
