    Hey McCreed and Mark, thanks to you both for the assistance and suggestions. Still 654 at treble E and 654 on the bass E so off to the bearing and bolt shop on the hunt for the longer M3's.

    A fastener supply shop likely won't have chrome ones like guitar parts suppliers, but you'll probably be able to stainless steel, which is not a bad thing. It's not like there highly visible anyway.

    Scored a few 20 mil screws - and swapped a coupe over. The nut to treble E break point is now 650 -651. Another foray and wangled some 25 mil screws but will need longer springs so grabbed a box of mixed ones for $10 and just maybe there will be something in there I can use.
    Another query. In the notch in the body to take the neck someone has written 640 in pencil. Is this significant?
    Also - am attaching a pic of the neck, body, bridge and scratch plate --- . I was under the impression that we should not see and timber between end of the neck and the bridge plate. Opinions please. Thanks Mark and McCreed. Click image for larger version.
