Maybe it has consumed itself from the bottom

Well that's a mystery. I'm going to order a new one...

edit : thank you jklotz & JayBee. Yep i am going to replace the strings as well, they still sound good though, those elixir strings are wonderful really, they are 6 or 7 years old and still sound great
Well, I'm a little skeptical that it consumed itself from the bottom, it's more likely that the neck shifted in some way, less likely that the top expanded and enveloped the saddle.

Hard to diagnose from here- but, I can say that almost certainly nothing is broken, and a visit to a luthier and about a hundred dollars or so will have your guitar playing better than you've had it playing in some time.
