irishdazzler Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Ok guys, im trying to tidy up a lovely old "flying V" I have just purchased and i need to replace a few screws - but i cant find the ones i need anywhere. the screws seem to be counter sunk and have a semi rounded top and the local DIY store has nothing even close! does anyone one know if there are specific epiphone/gibson screws for sale anywhere? please please help!

tflanster Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Go here;http://www.boltdepot.com/wood-screws.aspx You're probably looking for either slotted or phillips round head screws. Very common at most hardware stores like ACE. TFlan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidg3333 Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Do you need round head or oval head screws? Round head are rounded on top and flat underneath. Oval head combine characteristics of both flat and round head screws with slightly less rounding on top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishdazzler Posted March 20, 2009 Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 it sounds like its the oval heads i need. They look countersunk, but they arent flat tops - so from the side they look like oval heads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
