Re: Alvarez A800
I know this thread has been dormant for a while but can anyone tell me what the size of the truss rod nut is on 1970s Alavarez models. I'm trying to rescue an A900 with badly stripped threads on the truss rod. The non-original nut that was on it was an M4.7 (7mm wrench) but I think it was responsible for the damage. I have exposed new threads with a "truss rod rescue" tool from StewMac but I'd like to know the original nut size before I risk the new threads with a trial & error process.
Thanks!
