Eric,
They are the flat head philip type.
$0.75 a piece from http://www.pickofthericks.com.

There are (at the very least) three different kinds of screws that Rickenbacker has supplied over the past few years. I've seen chromed, zinc (silver cad?) plated and what looks like stainless steel. Because it's so easy to stip the Phillips slots on these little buggers, I recommend the stainless screws because the plating process weakens the surface of the metal, making the slots easier to strip. The screws I received from Rickenbacker recently are stainless. I have (at least) 4 extras, so let me know if you want them. $1.00 for all 4, plus postage.
