yup - like colin said. visit your local dealer - if they dont have em they can order em.

ive even purchased misc parts like that from a local hardware store

The screws used on the basses are nothing special. Any hardware store or home improvement center/building supply center (I'm not sure which type they have in the UK) should have them. Just make sure you bring one of each size so you can get a replacement that's the exact size. You could also order them from a luthier supply house like WD Music or All Parts, but why pay so much more for ordinary screws.

Awhile back I needed some pickguard screws. I e-mailed customer service and they promptly sent me a few more than I needed along with a bunch of cool stickers.

EBMM Customer Service rocks!

Dealer = Expensive.

The MM main dealer is a good guy but £8 for 3 screws (Bridge)

The screws are imperial and we use metric = Nightmare.

I also went to a hardware shop but what they had wasn't quite what i wanted.

What would be good is if MM gave screw dimentions
