Or, you can do what Shane did with his "Old Mac".... it developed a buzz in the box lid (probably from bowing, although I don't know) and he just screw the lid to the neck thru!!!!! Check out some of the old pics of the Mac..You can see the screw just behind the bridge. But, it took years and thousands of hours of playing to get it to bow enough to cause trouble.

LOL, yea, if it flex's enough it will hit the thru neck sooner or later. : ) Another good reason for a floating bridge, no glue to scrape off

Then just put on a higher bridge and keep playing.

seems to me the lid which is very thin wood , would cave in somewhat, even a hint after time, from the tention on the strings pushing down, causing the strings to lower, then hitting the frets at box end of neck?
