In February 2022, I traded a 2014 Custom 24 30th Anniversary to someone who then claimed the truss rod was broken and demanded I reimburse him for the repair. He did not take the guitar to the PTC, he instead insisted he "had a guy". Safe to say, the PRS truss rod isn't sold to any old "I got a guy" unauthorized luthiers, right?
Fast forward to last month, I reached out to find the guitar, and was able to buy it back from the person he traded it off to - the bad trader had the guitar less than a week. The guitar was fine and had no signs of a replaced truss rod (the fingerboard looks intact), so I reached out to the bad trader, who insisted he had the repair done, refused to refund me, and became belligerent. I would like to sue him in small claims court, but the person who I got the guitar from did not want to be a witness in court. What would a truss rod from that era have looked like?
I sent a support ticket asking this (62839) a week ago, but haven't heard back.
