Schecter truss rod stripped

So it turns out the Allen truss rod nut on my Schecter Diamond J bass is stripped. Are there any easy remidies for this? I've seen a couple tools offered by Stewart MacDonald but have no clue what size would do the trick, any suggestions?

Did you repair that yet if so, please let me know how? I have the same problem. The hex is wallered out.
Thanks,

Dan

Aha, what a surprise.

Have you tried measuring your truss rod nut? Or do you know what size allen wrench you had been using. Those fixes usually stay within the standard allen wrench sizes.

I've been working on my friend's A7 Diamond Series guitar and was surprised to learn that it is all metric

Just FYI.

I got a schecter hellraiser
the hex head was a 5mm i think from memory when that stripped i tapped in a t27 torx bit and it works fine with that now
