saddle adjustment allen screw size ibanez

1.5 mm allen key. Home depot/lowes/sears/most hardware stores.
Get a metric set of allen keys in the L shape btw.
You'll need a 2mm for the knobs, and a 4mm for the truss rod.
All that plus a small philips screwdriver for intonation adjustments and you're golden.

Doh! My bad. I would pop by a luthier and see if they have one in stock. Ordering from Ibanez sucks, they charge a fortune in shipping even for tiny parts. It's probably specialized enough that it's not common at hardware stores (though I could be wrong on that count).
2.5mm. I found them at Home Hardware. The only down is they are silver rather than black, but they work fine.
Hi I found a pack of 5 on eBay 2bux with free ship. Lowes nor HomeDepot carries that "small"of a size. Local guitar shops wanted way to much$. Thanks to ebay all is good. Thanks.
I've been searching for those for like a half hour and a search brought me here. I don't know why I don't just always check TalkBass first. Haha.
