The gadget that ajusts the pedals and knee levers. 5/32nds? seems like 1/4 is too big and 3/16 is too small. Or is it metric?

3/16 is the average size for most steels.

Billy,
What make PSG is it, you could contact the mfg. and get the right size. Maybe someone has changed the tuners??? If you have a 1/4" drive socket set, just see which size fits. 7/32,or 5mm would be the next size up from 3/16, could be the tuner ends have been mushroomed.

Try a regular deep well socket.
I have 1 guitar that a George L 3/16" tool is to tight on it.
The regular 3/16" socket has a small bit of chamfer on the inside edge and it slips on with ease.

Billy,
We're not that far from each other.
We could meet up, and you're welcome to borrow my extra tuning wrench, if that would help you.

Thanks much for the replys gents. I found the nut driver that I lost and it turns out it is a metric size 5. I like it cuz it's just a little looser than the ones I have gotten from Tom Bradshaw.
