This is a great method for neck adjustment on an Acoustic guitar, pity all guitars are not made this way.

On occasion there is a slight buzz. May have to come up with the neck angle. 002" more.

ancient1,

Just slacken off the truss rod a quarter to half a turn, don't forget to slacken off the strings first, then you may find the fret buzz has gone, sometimes you have to wait a while for the truss rod to do its thing and sometimes it works straight away.

No buzz, but it's border line. Thanks
