direct mount pickup screw size

[old_metal_head]

Does anyone know the size of the wood screw to direct mount a dimarzio pickup?

I had a similar situation:
I once got a Dimarzio D-Sonic that was taken off an EBJP guitar. It was direct mount.

It used screws that were fairly wider than the screws that come with stock dimarzios in a new box.

Because my guitar had rings, not direct mounting, I had to improvise these stilly bolts on the bottom of the pickup frame in order to use my standard screws!

I did that as well but I used press-in PEM fasteners.

I could drill out the holes in the new pickups I want to direct mount but that ruins them for ring mounting.

The smallest screw I could find is a #2 and it was to large.

I wonder what they use in the Ibanezes?

Now you'll have to tell us what "press-in PEM fasteners" are!!!
