This actually goes to a project RG i'm working on and a BC Rich Iron Bird of a friend.

I ordered a set of genuine RG neck screws/bolts and noticed there are 2 lengths to it (2 short 2 long see picture) but i have no idea where i'm supposed to place the screws.

As for my friend's Ironbird he had a stripped neck screw holes so it's apart already. Same deal.

Here are my RG screws

2 Screws 1-3/8" Long
2 Screws 1-9/16" Long

Stick a toothpick in the neck holes to see which ones are deeper.
If they're the same depth,
I'd put the long ones on the end of the neck.
More up-lift there.
