Hey guys, newcomer here.
I picked up my old Ibanez Gax30 to get it back up and running and honestly I didn't know anything about guitar care when I first got it.
It got now to a point that most of the screws are eaten with rust and can't be adjusted. I care less for the body screws but what's bothering me is the bridge, it was so ****** up already a while back that I got an original replacement for it and it was perfect.
somehow after treating it just right for a long while, i found out the higher saddle screw on the highest saddle (for the low E string) is stripped because of the rust. So I'm unable to adjust the saddle's height.
I tried using rubber bands as some people suggested, it worked partially, only after hitting the allen wrench's head i managed to screw it a bit before losing grip again.
Do you have any suggestions?
