    Question Quick Simple Question (Screws)

    Hey guys,

    Signed up here today to ask a very very simple question. I have a Black Musicman Stingray with a b/w/b Black pickguard. A few years ago I messed around with the screws, swapping silver for black etc.

    Problem is the black screws deteriorate too quickly and make the bass look poorly looked after. I wish to use the same hardware as the bass had when I bought it.

    What colour are the screws on the pickguard and pickup meant to be ?

    Thanks
    Jericho

    Welcome to the forum,
    I have the same colour bass/pickguard. The screws for the pickguard and pickup on mine are black. I haven't owned since new but I am confident that that is how it came from the factory.
    Hope this helps.

    It might be worth mentioning that it was buit in 2004. I have heard black screws were only used on the Stingrays in the mid 90s. Anybody think its chrome ?
