   The guitars made in Korea can be distinguished from the US-made versions in several ways: a smooth finish; smaller headstock with a decal that runs parallel to the strings; no screws beneath the bridge on the front of the body; a truss rod adjustment at the headstock; a neckplate with a serial number stamped on it, usually starting with a "9"

4. Relief (music) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relief_(music)

   To provide adjustable relief, most guitars have an adjustable truss rod. Some guitars, such as certain older Guild 12-strings, have two parallel truss rods. Turning the truss rod screw changes the tension of the truss rod, and thus the relief. Novice players should not attempt this, as the guitar neck can easily be damaged or broken.

   On a typical steel string acoustic guitar, for example, the action is adjusted by carefully sanding the guitar's saddle so that the strings sit closer to the fretboard. [1] The action on a guitar is also slightly affected by the adjustment of the truss rod. Tightening the truss rod bends the neck backwards, lowering the action—and loosening ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolt-on_neck

   One particular example of a bolt-on neck using an actual bolt is Brian May's homemade Red Special, which uses a single bolt held in place by the guitar's truss rod and secured with a nut on the rear of the body. [3] An acoustic guitar bolt-on neck popularized by Taylor Guitars includes threaded inserts in the heel of the neck. Bolts inserted ...
