If I remember correctly, there is a neck tilt adjustment that is located under the neck plate.

Note: the screws holding the plate are not the screws holding the neck.

you'll need to loosen the neck screws a little to use the tilt screw.

What BruDev said.. as long as the neck isn't toast, a touch of those screws should do it. Also don't go to heavy on the string gauge as that tends to pull the neck.

Hey!

Thanks a lot for your answers.

Im not shure i completely understand though, sorry.

The thing is, i find the strings to be too high from the neck. i was thinking of putting a shim under the neck, but form what i understand from your posts, this won't be necessary with this tilt? How does it works?

thanks again
