Truss Rod Tool
This might sound funny, but does anyone have a Truss Rod wrench I can borrow? I'll pay for shipping and send it back to you. Lemme know. Thanks

Re: Truss Rod Tool
Daniel, go on-line to some tool companies and order one. What you want is an Xcelite L-8 long shaft 1/4" nutdriver. You can find 'em for $7-8.

Good save! Luck for you, the Curmudgeon/ Homonym Police Chief is off vacationing with JH for a few days...

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

I've found that my 6 1n 1 screwdriver works if I remove one of the reversable bits.And it has a deep socket.
Re: Truss Rod Tool
If you buy one, you might want to make sure you have a bench grinder too.
The one I got had sides that were far too chick to fit in the route, and grab onto the nut. I had to grind away at the sidewalls of the socket until it would fit in. Works great though---order the $8 tool!

You can get the same tool at home dept or lowes, for around $5.00
