Hey,
I have a vintage reissue '62 Strat. I was setting up the action the other day (pretty high because I have big frets) and the two saddle screws (where the allen key goes) fell through on the high E string. I don't know how to get them back in. :confused: Help!

Welcome to the TDPRI!! You should be able to thread them back in from the top, if I understand you correctly. You might need longer screws.

How exactly do I "thread" them back in? I've tried pushing and all small meticulous little things. I'll look at it again. I don't need longer screws, this guitar is a 2007 model so it's all good to go. Stupid me just went a little too far with the action. :oops:

Actually... never mind. Turns out I'm just a dumbass. After taking another crack at it I tightened them in. Don't know why I couldn't figure that out before. Thanks for the help! :lol:

No prob....and yes they are a little tricky to get started back in. Feel free to hang out here. You'll love it. There is lots of Strat info here too.
