Does anyone know the size of the itty bitty screws for the tuners that screw into the neck through the little holes? I seem to have lost some.

Size itty bitty....

Get the stainless. The other stuff is crap.

Good point. As not for the stainless factor, more so that SS is harder than the Zinc's or Brass coated (unless you need Gold)
Everyone doesn't like an itty bitty screw that easily strips out .

They are #2 but the ones at my local hardware store are about 3/16 too long, Argh!!!

edit: So, I went back and got #2 - 1/4" screws. They are a smidge shorter than the originals but fully functional.
