Anonymous | take the neck off the guitar, wrap in paper, put in freezer for 48 to 36 hours, put in warm tub to thaw, and presto. - Mon, 3 Mar 2003 1:58am | ||

Anonymous | there is supposed to be a slight bow in the neck, i would take it to old town and see what they say, the guy down there thinks he is gods gift to guitar so dont take half the adjustments he says seriously but he will know if the neck is warped - Mon, 3 Mar 2003 11:41am | ||
