So long as said professional does know how to work on a Rick. If said profession says something like: "Well, it is a Ricky so I can not guarantee this will work because Rickies are....." run away!

It's Jimmy Page's old guitar tech, so I feel sure he'll do a good job. Just not looking forward to the bill!!

Cheers All, will report back on the work when I get the guitar back.

Hi Guys,

Just a quick update.Got the guitar back, and the chap I took it too said he straightened the truss rod as best as he could, which I'm a little disappointed with.

It plays just fine so will leave it for the time being. He did a great job levelling the frets and putting on a new nut, so thought I'd share a pic with you fine folk.

Here it is....Thanks for all replies.
