Truss rod sources?

Sign in to disble this ad
I've been using Stewart MacDonald truss rods and, while I like them a lot, they require a pretty deep channel in the neck blank. This is preventing me from making my 5 string neck as asymetrical as I would like it. Where can I get a similiar truss rod that requires less depth?

Any ideas?
