My mid-80s MIJ Jazz is missing pickup screws. Research points out the MIJ screws might be different in length (1 1/8" vs 1 1/4") and threads (metric vs standard).

Any advice on getting replacements is appreciated.

Thanx,
Bil

ps: I'm a newbie here, so please bear with me...

Just buy the USA pickup screws and use them. The pickups on a Jazz bass are screwing into the wood of the body so it doesn't matter if the original screws were metric or not.

Good luck with fixing your bass.
