    I have lost two of the saddle screws of my ABM 6-string bridge. On the picture you can see that I replaced the screw of the d-string saddle with a non-fitting nickel screw.

    Where (preferably in the USA) can I find the replacement screws for this bridge? I've tried local Guitar shops and hardware stores, but had no luck.

    Thanks,
    Christoph

    Hey Christoph,

    You link to the picture isn't going to the pic (for me): it's going to your flickr account and asking me to log in. Any chance you could post the image address instead of the page address?

    Aside from that, you might have some luck contacting All Parts. They sell ABM bridges, so they may be able to hook you up.

  4. There's a Fastenal store in Roanoke. Bring an original screw with you and they should be able to match it up.

    +1. They're just standard allen set screws. Any hardware store with a half-decent supply should have the exact ones you need.
