Pickup ring mounting screws

Postby panther » Mon Jun 13, 2011 2:01 pm

I bought a set of Pickups, and they didn't come with the 8 mounting screws, where can I find some. I've looked at GFS, and others but no luck.
I thought they usually included the screws.

Hi Dan,
you will find them in every hardware store or home depot or even in eBay, for example here:

They're just screws...
Cheers,
Max

We only have a small Tru value hardware store in town. I have to drive 30 miles for a real town.
I found some black ones on ebay, but I'd rather have the nickel. Thanks.

Wait a minute, you mean I've been over paying for special plated intonated screws all this time. They cost me $2.00 each. The told me they were special matched screws that were hand selected for their equal harmonics. Man what a rip off. :oops:
Anyone want to buy a few for $1.00 each, that's half off.... :shock: That includes free shipping to the lower 48 states.

Dan :lol:

Hi Dan,
sorry if I said something wrong, didn't want to sound insulting, maybe my English's just not good enough...
Cheers, Max

Max;
Absolutely not you didn't say anything wrong. I was just commenting on my little one horse town. With very limited resources. I have to compile a large list of needs before I venture (NO Pun Intended ) 50 or 60 miles round trip at $4.25 a gallon for fuel.
