I have a Nashville Power Deluxe Tele with the Fishman Bridge and it came with a small wrench supposedly to raise and lower the saddle pieces. It doesn't fit. :cry:

Does anybody know the kind metric/hex and size that the fishman power bridge is supposed to have?

Many thanks!
Drew

I haven't worked on one in quite awhile, but hex set did fit, just can't remember the exact size. Their support will help you.

Thanks for replying!

Yea, that's the weird thing. My friend has a mexican tele and the hex fits but it doesn't fit my Nashville Deluxe wish Fishman. I went to the music store where I bought it and they tried a bunch and found that the size was Metric 1.27. I went to all the major hardware/home stores in town (Lowes, Home Depot) and nobody goes smaller than 1.5.

SO! Shot in the dark, I went to Radio Shak (which typically doesn't have what I need) and they HAD IT! YAY.

It cost me $4.99 for the whole set but I managed to lower my saddle string height and now I don't feel like I'm playing a violin or going to shoot arrows from it.

SO, the final answer is that if you have a fishman bridge and your allen wrench won't feet (it slips) try metric 1.27 size.
