Parts without Parts

[Lazarus1140]

I have five Seymour Duncan pickups. Four of them have never been installed. The '59 Neck I removed from a Schecter, and the other for were purchased for guitars I never built. Somehow, I've still managed to loose many mounting screws, springs, and the little rubber tubes that are used in lieu of springs (for Tele bridge pups?). Today, I visited a fairly well stocked hardware store and was unable to find anything that matched the pieces I still have.

Does anyone know where I can get such parts. I have two different sizes of springs, and three sizes of screws none of which seem to fit one of the pickup bases.

APST-1 Twang Banger, SH-1N '59 Model, Stra Bro 90, Phat Cat Staple, Chrome (Neck), APTL-1 Alnico II Pro Lead, AP TR-1 Alnico Pro Rhy

I like Mojotone. Philadelphia Luthier is good too. And you can find them on Amazon if that helps you. Humbucker mounting screw threads are 3/48... my local hardware store stopped carrying most screws that small, the barstids.

FWIW I've accidentally used springs from broken ball point pens in the past, but the springs are cheap, no reason not to get the right thing.

Philadelphia Luthier has been good to me. Reasonable prices, shipped reasonably quick.

good suggestions so far. i have a fastenal close to me and they will order anything i want in small quantities for very fair prices as long as i dont mind a bit of a wait. typically they wouldnt take a $2 order for six screws, but if i wait till they have other stuff coming from that warehouse, they just tack it on, which is pretty cool of them.

ACE Hardware and Amazon

1/4 inch silicone tubing cut to length
not the hard plastic tubing

I want to say these screws are #3 in size not 3mm but #3

my Carvin pickups and single coils use a large size

6-32 I think

EDIT

imperial size or metric 20 count of each
