ABSTRACT:
A stringed instrument (10A) neck structure adjusting arrangement includes a cantilever member (39). One end of the cantilever member is configured to be connected, in use, to a body and/or neck structure of the stringed instrument. The cantilever member is configured to be moveable relative to a free end of the neck structure of the stringed instrument. The arrangement also includes an adjustment device (30) located at or adjacent a free end of the cantilever member. The adjustment device is configured to adjust a position of the cantilever member (39) relative to the neck structure, thereby adjusting curvature of the neck structure. The adjustment is in a plane substantially perpendicular to a main axis of the neck structure.
