Okay TaterTot Sorry about that, I was busy sanding a batch...oh joy, the glamorous life of a builder.
You're right, it is difficult without looking at it. Truss rods are designed for subtle adjustments. Turns are measured in 1/4s at the most. 1/4 turn then look, feel how easy it adjusts then decide upon another 1/4 turn. If you're truss rod is already really tight then you have to be very careful regarding trying to adjust it in case you snap it or push through the neck...Yikes! If the bridge has any adjustment to lower it then you could but don't sand it, you'll change the dynamics of the tone. It's difficult to say without getting my hands on it but it may be time for either a heat straightening of the neck or replaning the fingerboard.
