I've owned Collings guitars for a long time, and, for the first time, I need to adjust my truss rod. It looks like I need a ball end Allen wrench, which I've not seen before. Are they easy to find?
Charlie, If not, or if like me, you just can't wait until tomorrow to play with the trussrod, they are pretty easy to find at most True Value/Ace Hardware stores. You just have to buy the whole set for 10-15 bucks.

Hello boys and girls, Here is what I did. I purchased an extra long 5/32 ball end allen wrench. I heated it up, bent it a little here, bent it a little there, until it took on the shape like a Larrivee wrench. I can now (in just 10 seconds) adjust any Collings guitar with out removing the strings.
