There are others who are far more expert on this subject than I am, but I wanted to see if how much room was left to adjust the bridge toward the body. Bridges that are lowered all the way, or all almost all the way toward the body, can indicate problems with the neck and whether or not it may need to be reset. The finish cracking on the fretboard, may only be that, but if the bridge had no more room to be adjusted, the combination of the two could have indicated serious problems with the neck. From the photos you posted, it appears that there is still some adjustment room left so I'd think the neck is OK. You should get another opinion however, and preferably from someone like PW.BlueMeanies wrote:Thanks guys, i trust in you so here you are other photos but i don't understand why you need images of bridge for finish checking on the fingerboard. But i trust in you, you are the experts.....

Re: Help needed for 360!
Right now, since you're not inclined to pop for a full resto and a partial would be tossing $$ away, just play it until you can't adjust the bridge down anymore. This probably won't be less than a year or two, probably even longer than that. Then it's time for a neck reset and touch-up or even a full resto to factory standards.
