[Manowar]

Hi guys
My merlin mini is just 2 months old and it has stripped port screws in both dual deck and single coil deck. I've might over tighten them with provided alen key i don't know but I can feel the alen key quality isn't quite good finished.
Please any one could tell me where i can get replacements or alternative solutions
Cheers

Also get a good quality hex key. I find after a month the ones that come with atty's start to get rounded off causing stripped screws.

I like the Wiha hex drivers. Amazon also has them in single sizes if you don't need the whole set, but the set of 6 is about the same price as 4 singles. If you need more than one size, the set can be a good deal.

Yea... I have them. My 1.5mm does NOT fit. It strips every damn screw I try it on....

1.3 perhaps.
