How do you tweak the truss rod? On 70's i can see bullet rod and as i know you just "move" it in the direction that you want, but how to do it on the 50's and 60's. Do you need to take off the neck from the body to adjust it or i am wrong?

Yep, your right. You have to take that neck off. It's alot of work compared to other Fenders with the headstock access trussrod.

I have heard that you can do it by moving the pickguard. Never tried it that way though.

Ahhhh damn it! Man i just like 50's with tinted maple neck... i was going to buy it but now.... OK quick voting, MIM Standard or 70's classic? Whatever that i decide in the and it must be white with maple neck (tinted not that plain lifeless maple neck color), i will change pickups for sure, i am wondering 70's have 2 string trees which is bad for tremolo stability when its in use but it has schaller tuners, mim standard has ping tuners but 1 tree and it is about 300 euro's cheaper then 70's. Is it maybe that 70's has better wood quality or hardware like bridge etc. or it is just because of look?
