I've said many times, many ways, that I love my BD install on my '70s Japanese OM (Matsumoku via Conn) student guitar. Had developed a belly in front of the soundhole and the lower bout was pulled up, thus angling the bridge, resulting high action even with a too-low saddle.

The guitar was gradually, but easily, brought into alignment with the BD, though it did also still need some wood taken from the heel to bring the action down with a new saddle. No belly, flat bridge, flat lower bout - looks like new with 4/64 on the big E. Required a tweak on the adjuster to get the tone just right, but the guitar's like new again.
