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?

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. briant Advanced Member Username: briant Post Number: 285 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Wednesday, April 01, 2009 - 2:08 pm:    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. davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 7833 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Wednesday, April 01, 2009 - 2:50 pm:    You may want to give the office a call sometime between 10am and 4pm. briant Advanced Member Username: briant Post Number: 286 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Wednesday, April 01, 2009 - 11:56 pm:    Thank you for the email, Mica. I really appreciate it.
