Allen keys - What sizes for Strat & Tele repairs?

Ok,

I recently started a post about a product called Roadie Rench that has 7 (I think) allen keys, a couple screwdrivers and a string cutter all in one compact package.

It looks like a good idea - have the most important tools all together in one package. But, if I just buy the Allen keys separately, what do I need? I'm thinking mostly Strats and Teles, but if other sizes are good to have around for general guitar repair, please feel free to let me know about that as well.

Thanks,
Geoff

As far as USA and some Mexican stuff...1/8" and .050 are vital....Metric...you're on yer own......:?:

Also to add...the Goofy Micro-Tilt on those 70s 3-bolt Things is a 3/32 Allen

This size should cover American, Mexican, and all imports.
