      Yes I have a 1018 from Addiction FX, my humbuckers sound very well with it but finishes are unrefined. Slots for screwdriver are too large and not well centered.

        If you don't like ADFX, there is MOJO.
        I've heard That Montreaux has some good parts.
        You might email them.

          Mojo is very well finishes but is 1022 steel. The humbs sound a little brighter.
          I will send an Email to Montreux for more infos.

                Hi Marcfrom

                Are you looking for slugs or pole screws? I must say I had some nice ones (optically speaking ) from Montreux some years ago, they also sent me some nice brass bobbin mounting screws.

                Cheers

                  Hi Andrew,
                  I talking about pole screws.

                  Thanks for your proposition, about the 1018 pole screw but I will take it from Mojo it's very nice ones but I'm still looking for 1022 ones.

                  So if you have an idea...
                  Thanks

                      Thanks for your help Andrew but as you can read in this thread I have a pole screws from Addiction FX.

                      The pickups sound very well with it but my humbuckers sound very well with it but finishes are unrefined. Slots for screwdriver are not well centered.

                        Hi Marcfrom

                        You did say you had 1018 from Fx not 1022 The 1022 I got from fx look ok slots central, slightly rounded heads. The screws i've seen on Gibson humbuckers have been all over the place over the years. Unless your making fake pafs I do'nt think it's going to make a difference how they look, after all the sound should be the most important thing. I do'nt think you're going to find them from anywhere else.

                        Cheers

                          I have both From FX 1018 and 1022. Of course most important is the sound, I completely agree with that, but I just trying to improve my pickups as the best I can.

                            Hi Marcfrom

                            Perfectly understandable. Good luck on the hunt for the correct screws. I must say the screws I got from Montreux were visually very nice.

                            Cheers
