Onze excuses dat dit in het Engels
Did you know how much strain is put on your guitars neck by your choice of strings? Do you know how much this bends the guitar neck, and when you adjust the truss rod to compensate, how flat the neck should be?
As an example, the tables below show the difference in neck tension between a set of super light weight strings and heavy weight jazz strings, respectively 38.65 kgs and 67.36 kgs in tension.
Super Light 9-42
Diameter Tension
Note thous mm lbs kg
E 9 0.23 13.1 5.94
B 11 0.28 11.0 4.99
G 16 0.41 14.7 6.67
D 24 0.61 15.8 7.17
A 32 0.81 15.8 7.17
E 42 1.07 14.8 6.71
Total pull on the neck 38.65 kg
Heavy 12-54
Diameter Tension
Note thous mm lbs kg
E 12 0.3 23.3 10.57
B 16 0.41 23.3 10.57
G 20 0.51 22.9 10.39
D 32 0.81 28.1 12.74
A 42 1.07 26.3 11.93
E 54 1.37 24.6 11.16
Total pull on the neck 67.36 kg
Often, an ideal setting for the guitar is when the neck is not flat. It is called ‘neck relief’. Measuring with ‘feeler gauges’, either the first or sixth string is held down at the 18th fret while the gap at the 8th fret is checked with the feeler gauges. This gap can be from 0.004” to 0.008” (0.1 mm to 0.2 mm) depending on your playing style.
