Members Stratosteam Posted February 20, 2009 Members Share Posted February 20, 2009 Does anyone know what size allen wrench fits the truss rod nut in the soundhole of a Takamine EF381SC 12 string? I just picked up a used one in pretty good shape, but the neck relief could use a little tweaking. Is it possibly a 5 mm or a 3/16"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members revans513 Posted February 20, 2009 Members Share Posted February 20, 2009 I thought since Taks are made overseas that the 5mm would be right, however, the 3/16" fit better on mine. I don't know why, but I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Stratosteam Posted February 20, 2009 Author Members Share Posted February 20, 2009 Thanks; I will give a 3/16" a try. I just didn't want to guess wrong and round off the edges of the hex nut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why, but I did. Apparently some models were made with the wrong trussrod nut before the error was caught, so it may be 3/16, but 5mm is the standard for Taks.
