Just wondered if anyone knows how complicated or not this process would be.

It matters what year/model the guitar is...
If it a newer USA Elite with a bolt-on neck, it ain't too difficult.

If it is an older model with a set (glued-on) neck...
You will need to ask the Bottom-Feeders-Luthier-Gentlemen.
Or have a professional do it, like the Factory.

Also, I think that the newer USA Balladeers and Legends have a bolt-on neck, but the end of the fretboard may be glued to the top.
So ask the BFLG.

1st BFLG rejoinder: On old roundbacks, wit glued-in necks, "Bowl-bend", using sufficient quantities of good single-malt, and a heatgun.

Thanks for the replies. Mine is a 2005 Collectors. It doesn't need a reset, but I was wondering what the situation might be should I ever need one.
