I don't have the truss rod adjusting tool that came with my Exploiter once upon a time. Will a gentle touch and any small 1/4" combination wrench do?

Thanks!

The tool we provide is a 1/4" combo wrench. Craftsman brand will certainly fit, some toolmakers include very wide jaws on the open end which are hard to fit on basses with 2 truss rods.

A joke about this,

I was with my bass in Spain and didn't take the adjusting tool. The moment I needed to adjust I just went out to a hardware store and discovered that the " = inch thing is not THAT easy to find in Europe. We have another metric system.
Well ...the playing went a little harder that period.

Thanks, Mica! Sounds like the one I just bought should work!

Cheers,

Ken
