Oh FFS Taylor!

Post by Slowy »

Humid weather requires a trussrod tweak on my Taylor. Easy, says I; I've got plenty of hex style spanners.

Nope. It's a 1/4" nut with no room to get a socket in. Bloody Americans :roll:

So where do I get a 1/4" truss rod wrench that looks like this?

Buy Now?
I'm sure mine shipped with one too but it has history before finding its daddy.

How can I be sure I'm here?
The pills that I've been taking confuse me...
