Sides: 8-32 x 3/4" black flat-head (4x)
Front: 6-32 x 3/8" black flat-head (3x)
YMMV but I don't believe nuts are used for the jacks on the back (unless
you have some new custom wood enclosure or whatever).
If you don't have one - I highly recommend buying a Gage-It. They're
incredibly handy to have around and very cheap:
