Neck Reset question
I have a ca 2000 Martin OM-15 where the neck angle’s changed over time. The relief is good and the neck bolt is tight (the heel’s tight to the body still), but a straightedge laid on the frets toughes the bridge close to 1/8” below the top of the bridge. The guitar is playable, albeit with higher action than I’d like....is it reasonable to reset now? Or wait until the geometry makes it a necessity?

Sounds like its time for a neck reset.

So when they talk of neck resets being risky, they are right. In hindsight, I wish, wish, wish that I had simply tolerated the high action.
