screws

Dear fellas, i need your expertise and advices... I was trying to adjust the pickup height but it seems that the previous owner screwed a few screws. Some of them aren´t working at all even though i got them rotating (even those with smashed heads, see pictures below) They just don´t go up or...

My Rockbass Fortress (2010, 4-string) has an issue around the pickup. The upper P pickup's screws at the top and bottom are very loose. I usually rest my thumb on top of this one and there's a small groove worn into the wood from it, but my bigger issue is the screws. Sometimes after a couple...

Hey, the pickup screws on my 4-string Corvette $$ are stripped and oxidized so I don't want to pull them out to get the size. What is the length of the Corvette $$ pickup screws? 30mm or 35mm? Thanks!

Hi Folks, A quick noobie question. I was trying to loosen the screw in my Duncan Straplock upper bout on the 1999 Thumb and the screw will not turn with the Phillips screwdriver that I'm using. I have tried a few screwdrivers and am getting frustrated. I am afraid to strip the screw head...

Pick-up screws problem I need to buy these (WARWICK PICKUP SCREW FOR MEC - Cyberstore Internacional Português) screws which you can also find here at the warwick shop at warwick's website (Sound of Wood - Pickup Schrauben, M 2,5x35 (4 Stück)). Well, the thing is I'm in Brazil and warwick...

Hi, I am building a new bass body as an experiment. I love my Warwick neck, but I'm interested to see what another body will do for the sound. I am using all parts from the Warwick bass except the body. The problem is that I am not building as thin a neck joint as my warwick, and therefore I...

Corvette FNA Pick-up Screws Ok, I just can't really use the search of this forum. I think these questions I'm making here probably were done before, but, well, again: I have a Corvette FNA (NOT the jazzman) and my pickup screws are also rusty. I need to change them. No one around here where...

Hi all, Going to get some new neck screws. Quick question, does the Thumb BO use the 4.5x35mm or the 4.5x40mm screws? Cheers

I have a Corvette $$ that is missing two pickup screws and im having a really hard time finding replacements. I live in Balitimore, MD and have tried every local music store and hardware store that i can think of. Anyone have any advice?

I've been a proud player of a Warwick Corvette Standard 5-string for the last two years. I took my bass to Cleveland Music to have the action adjusted and the neck straightened and realized that the screws on my Just a Nut were completely stripped and came right out. Do I need a new Just a Nut...

I recently picked up a black gloss fortress one passive, I believe it is a 93, that I love. A couple of the pickup screws are a touch rusty-even a little stripped- and I'd like to replace them - maybe all of them. Here's the question - are the 30mm pickup screws correct for this bass? My...

I have a Rockbass Streamer that came with normal strap locks. I bought Warwick security strap locks, as they seem the natural choice. The problem is that the stock strap locks were held by 4mm diameter screws, while the security starp locks are provided with 3.5mm diameter screws. So the...

In case you are ridiculosly meticulous about your bass and want it to look great again read this. i personally do not like to mess with my pick up screws since the paint tends to come off easily and this leaves many times some of the underneath metal to show through and eventually these rust and...

Hello, I recently bought a new Corvette which was set up pretty well apart from the action being a little high. String height at the nut was fine but the higher up the neck you went the further the strings got from the frets. Basically the bridge seemed far higher than it needed to be. So...

Another question for you all. I have three Thumb BOs, 1998 5 and 6 string, and a 1997 5 string. I bought these used and some of the screws that the saddles ride on to adjust the intonation are stripped where the phillips head is so it is diffciult if not impossible to turn the screws any...

I just took delivery of my very first Warwick. It's a Thumb bolt on four string. I believe it from 1999; the serial number ends with 99 and it has a wenge neck. Everything seems to be working. I'll probably put some new strings on it tomorrow and set it up. So I'm looking at the procedure...

More or less all the saddle screws that hold my E-string saddle in place have lost their thread and it is now impossible for me to tighten or loosen the saddle! And it's begun rattling and I can't tighten it!!! Is there anyway to get some new screws? Like a whole bunch to keep this from...

I need some help!~ I have a Dolphin Pro I 2001, and yesterday the neck pickup 'popped out' on one side,..the screws pulled out of the wood underneath. I've never heard of anyone having this problem before? I took the pickup out and both metal brushings remained on the screws, so they had pulled...
