Gitarre Truss rod?

Wie “gefährlich” ist es, die truss rod anzupassen? Werde bald Saiten wechseln, von 10-46 auf 13-56 Nickel Wound mit wrapped G string, und das wird dem Hals ja einiges zusetzen. Worauf muss ich da achten, wie geh ich da am besten vor? Ist eine ungefähr 4 Monate alte Gio Ibanez, also kein alter billig kram

It depends.

Do you want to stay in Standard E? If so, just don’t change the string strength, because neither guitar nor strings are designed. Moreover, this would be extremely bad. To illustrate this: You have more than 50% more strings if you play the new strength in Standard E, so you and your guitar don’t do any favor at all.

Take these strings, if you want to have correspondingly deeper tunings, then the guitar will be able to insert it without any problems, as with deeper mood the tension is comparable high (or at least not as extreme) as with normal string strengths on Standard E.

And even if Ibanez and Cort are among the fantastic superstrats, each guitar has a limit of stress that it can withstand. By the way, thicker strings do not necessarily work on Sustain. Other factors do that more.

For example, if the guitar is set-neck, Bolt-on or Neck-thru. Yes, even the presence of a tremolos can influence here, as it takes away vibration as a free-floating part on the guitar.

If you want an Ibanez with more Sustain, look at this one or other prestige model. Then you have string-thru AND Neck-thru at the expense of the presence of a Tremolos.

This depends entirely on how deppy the person behaves.

It’s done right, and it’s really not hard, it’s completely harmless.

more than 60% more strings, I would send an email to Ibanez before it stops the constructiv

What do you think of the 60%?

there are tables of how much tensile force acts on the neck, of course in standard tuning

at 10/46 it is about 106LBS

at 13/56 about 168 LBS

At some point, depending on the construction, the maximum load is reached which can be held without deformation or breakage

Oh, you’re out of the same tuning.
Yeah, okay, that’s obviously plausible.

Depends on what tuning it is. With Standard, you are enormously raising the powers. If you go down to C, it’s perfect.

The neck will move forward in the long term, whether you can help with the Truss Rod is questionable, but not impossible. One thing I can tell you is that you don’t get more sustain.
