Rust on pickup screws

[PJM]

Hello,

I will soon be looking at a used PRS SE 245 which comes at a good price but is described as having "signs of rust on the bridge pickup screws". Assuming it otherwise plays and sounds fine, how worried should I be about this?

Thanks.

Not at all worried.

Not at all worried.

Yeah, this.

Yeah, my acidic skin kills the heck out of bridge pickup screws...

 

[elvis]

Me too. Just means it was played.

I passed up a beautiful guitar many years ago because of a little rust on the bridge and polepieces. I still regret it.

I would recommend you don't eat or cut yourself with the screws.

Pickup screws are replaceable.

Thanks to all for the replies. Passing on the guitar for other reasons (seller seems to be a flake, keeps changing availability etc. ).
