It's here!! Awesome condition! Only problem, there were NO allen wrenches and I don't have the exact one...how many mm does it have to be for the locking nut and for the screws on the bridge to change strings??

Someone here will know - In the meantime I can tell you they take American and not Metric allen wrenches. I bought one of those all-in-one sets that look like a giant Swiss Army Knife and it had the ones I needed on it. IIf you get one, take your guitar along or be sure it has the tiny ones because the bridge posts take really small wrenches.

My mom had bought a multi function screwdriver from black&decker which had the PERFECT size for the locking nut. Tuned it, looking good. Is it the same size as the ones on the bridge? I'll post pics ASAP. |

I'm pretty sure the bridge posts require one size smaller. Glad you found something that worked for the nut!
How's she play?

How's she play? The guitar arrived in pretty bad setup shape actually...action was too low and the strings would hit the frets, bridge was too high up...I had it setup from a luthier yesterday...NOW that's a different guitar! It plays really good! I really like the grit of the super 3, really really nice. I changed the strings with the usual 10-46 I use and they are perfect. The neck is awesome, really like this shape. The guitar looks almost new, no dings on the finish (which is awesome) too! I'll post pics soon  |

Glad to hear you got it put into shape! Once you get it setup right, I feel the HM's are some of the best players out there. The neck is really comfortable and the neck, frets and strings just feel solid to me.

Made this this morning...with it's original hard shell case under  You can't see the finish too well but you can see how well kept it is! OMG! That thing is immaculate! Nicely done... You can't see the finish, because it's busy reflecting everything on God's earth.  |
