My question is as follows - in the pic there is a chalked cross a few inches below bridge position and for some reason the top has sunk in just a bit over there . I thought this normally happened directly under the bridge feet but the top is nicely rounded where the bridge feet should sit.
Should I try and fit the bass bar over the slightly raised area or is it better to
try and heat press it out in a mould even though it is over a small and pretty thickly wooded area ?

Press it out flat and do it right.
