Interesting as I read your excellent site, your caution on the adjustment of neck angle with connecting rods. I did tighten the rod to change the neck angle slightly to bring down the action on the strings. I guess I could buy a shorter bridge or sand down the bridge? Deering says adjust the rods and doesn't seem as concerned? I guess I feel the tighting was not excessive but never really thought of it affecting the rim or tone.
