Sorry about the double post!
I've started to play my s540 again and the neck is completely bowed!!! :? The action is unbearably high. I've only ever dealt with strat and epiphone LP truss rods, that can be adjusted with an allen wrench. When I removed the cover on this one it's a bolt on a screw, and I'm not sure what to do.
Any help? Or should I just get it set up professionally so I dont screw anything up?

Inconsiderate of Iby to make you need new tools for such a common task. And they don't have a standard size, either!

Ask around on one of the Iby forums to see if someone can help you find the right size tool.

They never fail! For example, I got the thing used and couldnt tune or change the strings for two weeks because the size of the allen key(whatever you call that) was so strange!
Ughhh....

Anybody who rides a bicycle has likely bought a set of metric Allen wrenches. In my cycling days I never took to the road without one. That'll cover your guitar Allen wrench needs pretty well.

I figured out the allen wrench issue a while ago, I use the same wrench I use for my skateboard. :D
