The screw isn´t biting

[Emibass]

Hi, One of the screw of my jazz bass that attaches the plate on the body doesn´t bite anymore . Do you how can I make it bite?¿?¿??

Dip 1-2 (enough to fill the existing hole) wood toothpicks in wood glue and redrill the screw after it dries.

Yup, toothpicks. Check out this post from yesterday: Cheap Import Refurb (picture heavy)

Actually, if you coat the toothpicks with some wood glue and put the screw in while the glue is wet, you'll get a better repair. Give this a read: http://www.thegearpage.net/board/sho...light=stripped
