HMM, the standard size #4 machine screw is 4-40. This is the size of
the set screws in the knobs. a good source for machine screws is
mcmaster-carr. You can get nice stainless screws in useable
quantities: 10, 25, and I usually buy boxes of 100 because I tend to
use a lot of machine screws in my work. They even have the sought
after 1/4-28 stainless truss-headed phillips machine screws used to
mount the fender.
