Need some help with my truss rod
After more than 20 years playing my Ken Smith BT6 the hexagonal recess of my truss rod is worn out and adjustment of the neck's curvature is not possible anymore
Does anybody has an idea how to repair the rod or is it even possible ? Thanks for support. Best regards Axel

Use only the 1/8th inch and never the slightly smaller 3mm. The 3mm will round out that hex hole. We can fix it here as I have to cut the old part to get it off. |

Thanks Ken for you clarifying reply. My original Ken Smith wrench got lost years ago and to be honest I wasn't conscious of the need to use a 1/8th inch wrench and not a 3 mm one. Thus it's my fault as I use mm sized wrenches which are more common in Europe ...
I'll try to organize a 1/8th inch wrench and try it again. However if it does not work anymore I'll ship my bass to you. For the matter I consider a refinishing/restauration of the bass. Do you offer such services ? Thank you for support. Best regards Axel
