I was having trouble getting the desired action on my Takamine 2000 limited edition acoustic guitar. While trying to adjust the tension in the neck , I over tighted the truss rod to the point of falure. The head of the truss rod broke off under torsion.
Does anybody know if this is fixable? Can a truss rod be replaced in an acoustic guitar.
