What is the truss rod in a guitar?
A guitar's truss rod is a long metal rod that runs from the body of the guitar along the back of the guitar's neck all the way to the headstock. It's purpose is to provide strength to the guitar neck against the extreme tension of all the guitar strings. Also, without the stability provided by truss rods, guitar necks would have to be made from much harder and stronger woods to take the tension of the strings, which would in turn raise costs significantly. The use of a truss rod allows manufacturers to make guitar necks out of much softer woods or composite materials. It is also a means to stabilize and adjust the relief of the guitar neck (forward curve).
