Bridge Mounting Screws

[Dilver2]

Can someone please tell me what size screws to buy for a vintage style Tele bridge? I’ve searched and searched and everyone seems to say #6 x 1”. But I bought these sheet metal screws from Amazon and the heads are way smaller than the screws that are on my other tele’s bridge

AllParts shows these screws for bridge mounting but they’re listed as #8. https://www.allparts.com/products/gs-0063-bridge-mounting-screws?

Can someone give me a straight answer and a source? Ideally, I’d find nickel plated stainless steel, but I’d settle for just stainless steel.

I bought these on Ammyzon, but it wasn't a true vintage bridge - just "vintage style" Jazzmaster trem.

Maybe the heads on your other Tele bridge are flat? If they aren't, it's a good idea to go with flat head screws. Oval head screws can interfere with the threaded saddle screws.

Are you replacing screws on an MIA Tele?

Yeah… not only is Stewmac a ripoff, they don’t have everything.
