Looking for pole pieces

[Coma]

I wanna try to mod my Invader and one of the guys here had apparently replaced his pole pieces/slugs with the hex key type that's commonly found in the Full SHred and Dimarzio pickups. I'm having a bit of trouble finding anything like it here at home, as it seems to be something of a specialized product. So I was wondering if anyone would be interested in pickup up a set of proper length and compound and then just shipping them over to me? I honestly have no idea regarding specifications of magnetic strenght or any such thing - I emailed SD a long while back but never got any reply. I've got paypal and everything so I could transfer cash no probs.

What you are after are 5-40 socket head cap screws, 1/2" from memory. If you can find a specialty fasteners store in your area they should have some, if not you can order them online from various sites. If they are longer than you need you can always cut them back with a hack saw.

Don't use the ones from Stewmac, they're too small. Fastenall maybe.

Are you certain? Found this old thread and it says to use 10-32.
