okay i've heard different things from different sources. some say to lower the neck (create backbow) you turn the rod clockwise, but then i've read elsewhere that you turn it counter-clockwise. i have a jackson dk7, and the truss rod is accessed at the headstock with a socket-wrench type tool (not an allan wrench). so which way should i turn it? i'm trying to get the strings closer to the fretboard w/o buzz.
