Piickguards screw size, question

Wayne Baker · November 16th, 2004, 05:36 PM

Are all strat and tele's pickguard screws the same size, weather USA or import? I need some for a Korean strat project. Does anyone know the exact size of the screws? The MIK seems too be metric, or a 5 if there is such a thing. Thanks

They come in all sizes and metal and guage and head size and color and on and on.

I like the vintage small head ones and haff quite a few here iffin yew need a set.

here are a few I haff documented.

#4 X 1/2" are the ones I try and stay close tew. #5 will werk if yew kin fine a smaller head.

I don't know nuttin bout no silly millies !! HEE! HEE!

Hope this helps

Thanks Fuzz very helpful. I will get some #4 X 1/2" at the local hardware. I'm not too worried about this particular guitar, I just didnt want to put too small a screw in. I hate the big head screws too, but cept for one tele I have it looks kinda cool on. Thanks for ur offer.
