Re: collings truss rod loose in guitar
HiIt happened to me once on my first Collings. All it means is that the truss rod is holding no tension, so loads to apply as and when necessary.
IIRC - I took the strings off and replaced it and just screwed it back on , then applied a minimum amount of tension then left it.
21 years later (when I foolishly sold it) it was still fine.
Hope that helps, Andy

reversed it and put way higher action on it now and in fact plays much better than before
