Ok, so my Carvin DC700 neck developed a back bow. When I press 1st string against 1st/24th frets, there is no gap between it and the frets, and when I press 7th string against 1st/24th frets, there is veeery little gap. This is not normal. Treble strings buzz like crazy on the first few frets, really annoying. Truss rod is all the way counter-clockwise, it won't move any further.
I already had this problem with this very DC700 around in Feb 2014, and couldn't do any significant adjustment to the neck, until one day it fixed itself... Now this problem is back, but in a completely different weather season, and once again, I can't do much about it. I live in an apartment, and store this guitar in the same environment throughout the year. Why is this even happening (considering that Carvin guitars have 2-way truss rods, and this should be easy fixable), and what should I do about it? Wait for the day it fixes itself, again?
Note: we don't have any guitar techs that can do luthier tier stuff around here, only minor setup...
