Thanks.

The guitar is a epoch, the metal plate for the bolts is stampped gibson bauldwin. There was a angle on the neck to body. the neck was pointing down/in so the strings would be toutching the higher frets. when playing down the neck. i took the neck off and seated it level with the body. whoever built it had packed the back end out with wood.

I hav the truss rod (i take it thats the part where the strings go in?) turned all the way down, so i cannot lower the action from there.

I want to update to a eppiphone sg or the les paul copy in the future but for now i have to get the best out of what i got until cash comes my way...

It holds tune well, and the neck is straight. i just need to lower the strings/action

Any info you guys have would be great, thanks for the replies...
