Is yours a vintage model? Those have the screws on the top of the body instead of the back. The only way a 90's reissue convertible wouldn't do that is if the springs were replaced at one point or another with rubber tubing, like Wellspout suggested further down in the comments, or of course if the pickup was replaced (you'd be hard pressed for something that fits in the tiny soundhole. Didn't mean to come off snappy. I'm a bit of a gear snob, sometimes it just comes out that way ;).

i wasnt being mean you dont have to act like that its just i have a donelectro convertable and that dosnt happen

The screws have springs to hold up the pickup, so if you push down the pickup like I was in the video, the screws will push through the back. That's how the pickup is mounted. No it's not something that really matters at all in playing it, it was just my way of showing how the pickup was mounted in the video. This is my 3rd of 3 danelectros I've owned, I'm pretty sure I know what I'm doing by now.

surgical tubing to stabilize lipsticks is the ticket
