I have a Folklore that needs a little Truss Rod adjustment. Is it better to adjust the Rod by turning the Nut under the TRC?....or by adjusting the Allen Head Screw inside the Sound Hole?

Any advice would be appreciated. Sorry, let me re-phrase that. Any good advice would be appreciated....lol.

Thanks.

Does your Folklore have BOTH?

If your Folklore does have both, look under the TRC to see if the nut is really there.
Then use the one under the TRC.

Both of my Folklores, the 1114 and the 6774, both have TRC's and that is where I adjust them.

Thanks OMA. That's where I'll go.
BTW, how many guitars do you own? I'd love to see the list!
