Try Ferree's Tools. I seem to remember they have Buescher pivot screws in their catalogue.

Tell us where the two are missing on your Buescher C melody so we have a idea of the screws what we should be looking for verses the ones Ferrees has.

To tell you the truth I went back up to Ferees and Gary happened to be there and he thought some new Conn screws would work so he did a little work on my horn and I no longer need the screws.The Conn screws were not a perfect fit small tap but you would never know to look and they work better then the ones that came in it.I will say one thing about Ferrees they go out of there way to get the job done real nice people.And for me anyway not to far from where I live

cavedave - Ferrees spread happiness across the world. The Buescher snap-in pads I get from a UK dealer come in Ferrees bags with hand-written 'contents' labels....

Nice touch, doesn't make you feel that they're too big to care. Pity there's always a few pads that just won't fit, but I think that's more down to Buescher manufacturing changes over the lifespan of C-Mels.
