I picked up this guitar a couple of days ago, and it needs some love and attention. While it makes it way to me from my brothers house (over a yet to be determined timeframe), I thought I'd start picking up some of the obvious parts that it needs.
1) One of the nut mounting screws has a broken head. I think these are the correct replacements?
1) Are the tuners not original? They look like M6 pins?
2) Is there a better place than StewMac to get parts? I think the tremolo is a Schaller licensed Floyd Rose, so am I better offwith Schaller parts? I'm in Canada...
3) Suggestions for the best thing to use to remove the sticker?
I'm sure I'll have a lot more questions/need more help restoring this one once it arrives, and I find out what else is wrong with it....

2) Missing a tremolo arm. Not sure which of these three is correct:

UPDATE: Ordered this:

3) Missing back plate. I see in some other posts, these guys were suggested. Still the best place?

Some questions:
1) Are the tuners not original? They look like M6 pins?
2) Is there a better place than StewMac to get parts? I think the tremolo is a Schaller licensed Floyd Rose, so am I better offwith Schaller parts? I'm in Canada...

Thanks in advance.
