Checking the relief on my Taylor and there was a bit too much so gave the truss rod a quarter-turn tweak. When I came to replace the screws I noticed one was shorter than the other. About 3mm of the lower screw has snapped off in the hole. It’s a tiny hole so no chance of getting anything in there to grab it. The stump of the screw is in there now but there’s nothing much holding it in. Not a major problem really, but wondering if there might be a trick to getting the snapped off tip of the screw out?

The remains of the snapped screw is in there now as you can see in the photo but there is not enough thread to keep it secure (it turns a bit too freely). I suppose if I could get a similar screw but the same length as the snapped off screw remaining, I could do the matchstick and wood glue trick.
