ABSTRACT:
An adjusting mechanism for a neck aligner in a stringed instrument includes a front block and a rear block arranged in parallel in an internal chamber in a neck. A threaded engaging block and a depressing block are provided between the pair of front and rear blocks. An end of a truss rod is inserted through the pair of front and rear blocks, and a threaded part thereof is threaded into a threaded tube at a rear side of the rear block. An adjust screw is inserted through the depressing block and is threaded into the threaded engaging block. Both opposite ends of the rear block and rear end surfaces of the depressing block and the threaded engaging block in contact therewith are formed as sloped surfaces. The threaded engaging block and the depressing block are caused to approach each other by operating the adjust screw, whereby the rear block is guided on the sloped surfaces to move away from the front block and the length of the truss rod in an elongated groove is reduced.
