The neck relief gap should be very small, just barely detectable by eye, so chances are that you could tweak the truss rod a little to adjust it and that alone will be all you need to do to get that slightly-too-high action down to more like 2.6 or 2.7mm, which should still sound fine and make it noticeably nicer to play.
When you adjust the rod, just do a little bit at a time. An eighth to a quarter of a turn is plenty. Then give it time to settle. Do a bit more then next day if needed. Keep track of how much you turn it so that, if you want to, you can return it to the original position.

Take the bluegrass player. He has to compete with banjos, so his action is likely to be set a bit higher.
