Hi all

Can anyone tell me what size of Allen/hex key is required to adjust the saddles for intonation on the new high mass bridge?
The bass is an American Deluxe Precision Bass.

Thanks

Stuart

Should have gotten one with the bass,there's usually a bag called "case candy" in it comes the t handle trus-rod adjuster,a fender bass strap,polishing cloth and a booklet,did you check the whole case for it ?
If its the usualy size they have been using its a metric 1.5, I prefer the the slotted screw type myself,SHOULD WORK !!

I heard Gc takes the pickguards off and switches them around then they put old strings on them and then they move the saddles around so the intonation is out and then they eat fried chicken and use the bodies as a napkin. :P

Or a 1.5 in metric,go buy two of the allen key sets that open up like a pocket-knife one in metric and the other in standard,only 3 bucks or so for a set,good investment. :mrgreen:
If it was bought at G.C. he would be lucky to even get a bass that works, nevermind the correct allen key and trus adjuster.

Hi guys

Thanks for your help. I rechecked the case candy but the only hex key in it was for adjusting the height of the saddle not the intonation.
We don't have a GC here in scotland..

Will post pics soon

Thanks for the welcome
