Cheap screws
oh, i understand, that may be a problem, these shitty screws for wood...
well, try to replace them... and stop messing with them all the time :p
edit:
i don't know if the replacements will be of superiour quality though...
(the usual hardware at low cost is pretty poor)
try maybe, like sixtring suggested, not to overthighten them - they will hold the pupring anyway.
Right, only problem is, my bridge pup ring has the correct screws (5/8") so thats cool. My neck pup ring has 3 correct screws (1/2") and one 5/8 screw for reasons unknown. The only way to get it in all the way is to tighten it pretty hardcore, so the head is a little stripped and I am afraid if I put it in I may not be able to get it out in the future.
EDIT: I just bought an EMG 60. Do those come with pickup rings too?
I trust you, but I think you are wrong for the opposite reason. I switched to a smaller head driver and it seems to work OK :)
I have been working in the electronics biz for about 2 years so likewise, I know these things. But yes, often times the head is too small, stripping the whole screw. But that can also happen when the screwdriver is too large. Just had to bust out my little tools.
I found the one hole where the big screw "belongs". Someone probably just drilled it out a little deep and decided to use the 5/8" screw. Got the EMG 60 in there, letting the fret doctor do his job before I string it up again ...
I am a fan of computer games. Since childhood, I played sims, and after that - clash of clans, but I also like something like an online casino. here you can relax and unwind after a hard day
Have you thought about trying stainless steel screws? They are known for their durability and resistance to stripping which might solve your problem. It is worth a shot before investing in a whole new set of screws.
