Hello, I just purchased Status Graphite II and I have a question about the truss rod. When I tighten the truss counterclockwise it should bow in, right? When I go all the way clock wise I think it loosens entirely, am I right? Thank you for your help.

It's a two way truss rod, when you turn it clockwise, the neck goes back, anticlockwise, the neck goes forward.

DON'T Turn it to much, you don't need it, if you do it you will probably brake something.

Thank you, so it means if I turn clockwise and at some point there is no tension at all something might be broken. Am I right? I never turned too much but that what is happening or I might be mistaken.

I am an idiot. Because I was so scared I was too gentle when it reached the mid point. I managed to adjust it and there was tension after that mid point. I am relieved now. Jibudo, thank you for your help.

Glad i could help.

Out of curiosity, why did you needed to adjust the truss rod? Is your bass brand new or second hand?
