Author Topic: Pickup set screw - need replacement (Read 189 times)

Sometime during my gig last night one of the set screws for my neck pickup decided to jump out of the bass. Which is odd because I didn't notice the pickup being loose or anything prior to this happening.

Anyone know what size screw this is?

I don't know the size, but the following might be helpful.

From the FAQ; Because ferrous magnetic materials have the most affect on response, we don't use magnetic steel screws to anchor the pickup, we use stainless.

A replacement set is shown in the store for $5.99.

I suppose you could take out the other top neck pickup screw and take it with you to the hardware store and look for a matching stainless steel screw.

So... how long does it typically take to get an order filled from the online store?

I ordered a replacement set on March 22 and still haven't received anything but the automated yahoo checkout receipt. No processing, shipped, here is your tracking number...

Good thing I was able to loot one of the screws off my JPJ so I can gig my Rogue. I'd probably be fairly upset if that wasn't the case.

You may want to give the office a call sometime between 10am and 4pm.

Thank you for the email, Mica. I really appreciate it.
