screws for 60's compensating bridge?

hey gang, I just got a 1960 LP Junior in pretty good shape but the compensating wrap bridge it came with doesn't have the screws. i bought a new black badass bridge, but would like to get the old one (yeah, I know, not original) to have better intonaiton. It's a little sharp right now. I even emailed the Parts Drawer, they have none to spare. help, please!!

Your bridge isn't original to your 1960 JR. It looks like a "lightning Bolt" 1961 bridge, they had black set screws and are easier to find since the piece is not very expensive. Your 1960 JR should have a nickel plated aluminum wraptail with a smooth saddle.
