Can you turn on offers or buy now? l**4 (142 • 11:11 pm, Mon, 22 AprHi, I'd prefer to let the auction run I think. Thanks for the interest. Cheers. 66por912 (1638 • Monday, 22 April 2024Does this guitar have a truss rod in the neck? One of the photos looks like there is a bit of a bow in the neck (hard to tell) that could be easily rectified if a truss rod is present. s******u (145 • 06:09 am, Tue, 23 AprHi, No truss rod on this one. The neck looks straight to me...no bowing or twisting. From drowninginguitars.com: " Almost all Zen-on guitars had reinforced necks, but not adjustable truss rods. To compensate for heavy string gauge pull, the necks on these are usually rather thick but still feel comfortable." Thanks for the interest.
