Got this a couple of weeks back-

Great tone, looks like it was never played, plays well, even with its problem-

I think the neck set is ok, but the arch in the top of the body has flattened.(?)
Almost no gap at neck to body joint- between paper and thin pick gap at bottom.
Plan one is to buy a new bridge and cut it lower. Stock one is 5/8" between stings and body lowered as much as possible. If it was about 3/16 lower action would be great.
OR-
Plan two is replace nut or buy a slide nut extension, and just play slide on it.
First I MUST buy new tuners. I had forgot how bad these can be.
I keep having thoughts of a surface mount P-90, LP style control back plate for access, and body mount vol/t pots. But worry that would screw up the great tone this thing has.
Help! What should I do?
