Gibson Marauder question

[BenPerkins]

Not sure if there’s any Marauder owners here, but thought I’d check anyway. I inherited a Marauder (1975 or 1976) and the pickguard is missing it’s screws. Any idea what size I should buy?

Thank you [emoji106]

Do you have a small hardware store nearby you can take one of the old screws to so they’ll fish a replacement?

They are just plain old pickguard screws....

Yup. How many did Paul smash at the end of the night?

I have a 1976 S-1 which is the sister of the Marauder. The screws are standard Gibson pickguards screws (as you can get for example on WD Music and many other places.)

I'd just order some online and see. Probably pretty cheap.

However....

Look for a store called Fastenal in your area. Probably in a somewhat obscure location. The name stands for "Fasten All." In manufacturing they call screws, bolts, etc fasteners. This place will have EVERYTHING, likely in black or chrome with standard, Phillips, and hex top options, in whatever length you need.
