Thanks for all the feedback - great forum!

This guitar has the pickup built into the saddle, so I'm not inclined to mess with that too much. Also, when I let the string tension off to remove the bridge, I felt inside at the base of the neck, and there is a recessed hole with a hex hole for an allen key, so I'm guessing the truss rod could be adjusted here, but not at the headstock like I'm used to. There is a slight bowing in the face around the saddle (saddle tilts a little forward), which would account for my problem I guess.

So now my question is can the bowing be rectified and/or compensated for by adjusting the truss rod? Or is the guitar a basket case?

Thanks for all the assistance.
