A wedge under the fingerboard is exactly what you should do; it's the only cost-effective method.

Well I'm not going to do a re-set if its attached like that!! Paul thanks for that picture!! Very illuminating.<br />
<br />
Tim the scale is approx 13-1/16".<br />

Here's a question: what do you all think of a tapered rosewood fillet glued between the neck and fingerboard to correct the neck angle?
