Does anyone know where I can get replacement screws for my Carter?Or the size of the set screws on the levers?I noticed a nut on the floor and traced it to a broken screw.
Thanks |

| Get in touch with Al Brisco. His store is Steel Guitars Of Canada. He bought up all of the remaining Carter stock. |

Take one from another lever and take it to your local hardware store to match, or just take the nut. They should have them. Nothing special about them. I have purchase longer one's because I needed more angle adjustment, but don't remember the thread size.

Thanks all!I went to Tacoma Screw in Seattle and got 4 spare.3/8" and 1/2" lengths..I think I'll get some longer ones and experiment with tightening my action up.I believe that it how it's done.. $0.71 for a lot of twang!
