Okay, I play guitar and have a beautiful martin triple 0 series thin body. I love this guitar but the neck seems to have minor issues part of the time where it needs to be straightened out just a hair, but martin has a special truss rod in their guitars that you need their adjuster to move, it has that life time warranty on it so they will do it for free, but that means every time I need a very slight adjustment done I have to send my guitar out for a week while it's still playable. Does anyone know where I could buy one of their adjusters, I can't seem to find one. Thanks all

No idea - but does Martin have a certified repair shop/dealer thing?  I mean there are tons of music shops that offer repair services - maybe one of them is covered by your warranty.  Also - maybe you could become buddies with a repair guru who would loan/give you one. 

Personally, I don't mess with the truss rods in my guitars.  I just play with the minor intonation issues until I get a full set up done.  When I have more guitars and can afford to experiment on one then I will do what you're doing and do my own work - but until then I will trust a pro.

FWIW I have an Ibanez RG1570 in the shop right now (also being retuned from E to D standard).  Got any recordings of your Martin?
