Does anybody know how to access the truss rod on an Ibanez AEG8E? The action is a bit too high, but I've never lowered it on an acoustic guitar before.

truss rod adjuster has got to be at one end or the other of a neck. On Acoustics/classicals its usually just under the sound hole where the fretboard ends. You might have to take the strings off to be able to access it.

WARNING

IF YOU HAVE NEVER MESSED WITH A TRUSS ROD BEFORE, DON'T DO IT

It is EXTREMELY possible to fuck your guitar up COMPLETELY.

If you're dead set on adjusting your truss rod with no experience, do quarter-turns ONLY. You do NOT need very much in terms of turning it, and it can take a few hours up to a day to see any actual results from adjusting your truss rod.

Actually he has. He's just never done it on an acoustic, and as far as truss rod adjustments goes, it's virtually the same thing. Just no more than half a turn every 24 hours.
