Good source for strat bridge screws?
I need to find some of the small screws that adjust the "hight" on the bridge saddles. Any ideas where to look?
Thanks! |

Guitar Parts Resource has them.
http://www.guitarpartsresource.com/screws_bridge.htm If you check the model service diagram at Fender it should tell you which type to get. |

In San Fran there's gotta be an Ace Hardware.... they have a great selection of Stainless steel screws... cost about 10 cents each....

Well I found some at my Hardware store that are really close but my strat is a Japanese "Fernandes" so I guess I'm going to need a metric size?
Any ideas were to find screws that will fit a Fernandes? Thanks again! |

Hey Johnny, anyone carrying screws today will have both...SAE and Metric...get up and go to the hardware store,.. or if you prefer you can order 'em from McMaster-Carr

Yeah. The Hardware is more likely to have the M3 that may use, than the 4-40 that Callaham and FMIC AVs and CSs use.
I am finding just within the last few years, fewer and fewer of the genuine hardware stores have a full selection of stuff, especially Imperial. |
