I love to use Steve's tool but there have been a couple of instances where it just would not fit.  I had to resort to my old, ground down metal nut driver with tape to insulate it.  If it affected the tuning, which it has in a couple of instances, I adjust, remove, check, adjust again. remove and check until I get it right.  it takes a bit of extra effort but it works.
