Hi:
I have a New ES-335 Traditional Pro Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar. I am giving the guitar a complete setup starting with the neck. I have removed the strings and using a notched straightedge checked for neck flatness. Adjusting the truss rod I can take the neck into & out of negative relief. What I am finding is that I cannot get the neck to be dead flat on both side at the same time. I can adjust the rod for flat on the bass side but the treble side is in slight negative relief. If I set the treble side flat the bass side has added slight bow relief. Is the neck warped? Twisted? Is there anything I can/should do fix/change it? Or... is this normal?
Thanks,
Tom
