Advice on Sinking Top and Bowed Neck on Vintage F-5 Loar Copy

[Professor PT]

I’m happy to report that the truss rod adjustments seem to be working. Just a day later and it plays much better. I’m going to continue to humidify and let the wood settle. I’ll likely be sending to Gary at some point to address some issues, but I’m relieved right now and definitely thinking it’s a keeper. I listed my A-5 two point Jethro Burns for sale to make this sudden purchase feasible!
