Prime_BASS Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I just register this bass 4 days ago, I've set it up with new strings, truss rod adjustment, string hieght and all I have left to do is the intonation, it's not out by miles but it's annoying knowing that everything after the 12th fret is sharpe! All the Allen keys in my cruztools set don't fit the key holes. 5/32 is slightly too big and 1/8 is definatly too small!! So what to do, there doesn't seem to be an in-between, I've tried all the Allen keys in the house and I can't even find metric ones to fit. I can do the intonation easy so I'm not taking it to get done, I just need the correct Allen key size or an alternative. I've tried searching google and EBMM website but no info anywhere at all.

Ou7shined Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 You don't need an Allen key for the intonation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorick Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Intonation screws are Philips headed, probably a size two or three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
