HI All, strange problem looking for thoughts. 12 string acoustic sat on a stand relatively unused for a year or two, noticed on a recent playing that the high frets were too high, most stuff played towards the end of the neck was just fretting out. Was clear that the higher frets were sort of collapsing into the sound hole. I' had to loosen the truss rod to get it to the current playable position but you can see in below pic the clear S shape of the curve.
Have read about resetting the neck but not sure it applies here. Any thoughts on solution?

Also the neck relief needs looking at. Trip to an experienced technician/luthier
What make/model is it?
