Hi,
I am preparing to glue in a Stewmac Martin-style truss rod.
The instructions say to run a bead of epoxy on the bottom of the sides.
Can anyone clarify this?
Does the flat part facing the fretboard need to be flush with the fretboard?
I've got about 1/32" clearance.
Thanks,
Dan

Yep, epoxy it and yep again, flush is best but you can add a thin veneer if you need to.
