    Default Roundhead, countersunk 8g woodscrews

    Wouldn't have thought this would be so hard. I rang a couple of local guys, thos warburton and ft/gully bolts and no luck. The suggestion was to look overseas. I need them to be 40mm, 45mm, 50mm, in stainless steel.
    Philips ok slotted better.
    thanks

    I may be wrong but aren't countersunk and round head two different things?
    If I am right then that may be why no one has that item.
    Try online stores they have everything, Binks yachts.

    I haven't seen those in years. It would be 30 years since I have seen any of them, That's not to say that they still aren't made. I wouldn't think there would be a huge market for them. The last ones that I saw were slotted and were cad plated.

    Yes they are exotic andused in guitar making.
    The primo ones are slotted [none of ya philips heads] nickel plated, rounded head and countersunk. Oh and they have long threads meaning rght up the shank. I would be happy with philips. They are called timber screwsat bunnies but have flat heads.

    What part of the guitar are they for? The keys, pickguard or strap lugs and what type of guitar, acoustic or electric?:confused:
