you can have the truss rod adjusted if it's the truss rod. My Les Paul's neck got screwy, I brought it in, it was bad, they adjusted it and made it all nice again. You mught not have as big of a problem as you think, or you might. Take it in and see what they say.

:lol:

seriously tho, the truss can fix that. your problem is the saddle. it needs to be remounted. that is much morein depth guitar surgery.
