No, super easy. Just be careful with the pickup element. I also tend to super glue the controls under the rosette. Just a couple of drops of medium viscosity super glue with the adhesive they provide.

Hope this helps!

Yeah, I second Evan it is easy. Worst part is if you have to drill a fresh hole for the jack in the tail block. Use a step bit to avoid chip out. And it’s not a 1/2″ that you want. You want a 15/32″ hole for best fit. (.468″) Get rid of the washer on the inside of the jack, just use the star washer against the nut. You can also use a 1/2″ countersink to avoid chip out before you drill the hole just don’t drive it in too far. The reamer in the middle is a metal reamer at 15/32″. I like Evan’s idea about a drop of CA glue on the adhesive. I’m going to adopt that one! Unless the wood is super clean, sanded clean, etc. you never know. Just inside the soundhole can be corrupted with finish and or buffing compound or maybe even wax, good insurance!

You were right, everything was easy, a nice system..

But Dave, I didn, t understand the numbers. What does 11 slash 16 mean?? 15/32???? And why is there a quotation mark behind the numbers??

By the way I think the jack-hole from the old pickup was only 11,9mm. I had to drill again with a 12mm drill.

Just kidding..

Greatings from Europe and thanks again for the support

Evan the superglue idea is really great 🙂
