    I need a screw!

    Actually, I need 2 screws for the toggle switch on my new to me MMSR5. It has a black pg with black screws. The black screws that held the toggle switch were actually pickguard screws, not machine screws as are usually found to mount that type of toggle switch and, in this case, are needed. The wood pickguard screws just don't cut it. Does anyone have or know where I can get those black machine screws to mount the toggle?

    Who are you who are so wise in the ways of wood screws?



    Howdy, Ben! Did you try Lowe's?

    Hi Jack!

    Lowes only has nickle screws and about all of the suppliers of the toggle switches have chrome. I can be a little anal about matching the screws.

    Ask for customer service. They'll probably make you a deal.
