I like to keep two kits one metric one SAE of stainless grub screws in various sizes/ lengths so I never have a proud hand grinder. Also, your playing is always so impeccably clean, and that makes me angry!!

The bridge plate material is different, ie. brass vs steel, so there is probably some high end difference in the pickup tone.

Interesting. There was a much bigger difference than I would've guessed.

The real question though is would there be an even bigger difference in a more versatile mix of Van Halen riffs? Sadly, I guess we'll never know.

Brilliant idea. What are the typical sizes of grub screws on saddles? I have a couple slightly proud grinders.

I believe metric is M3 4mm,6mm,8mm, my SAE set isn't right in front of me, so I can't recall that size. Amazon sells the sets for reasonable dough.
