Step 1: Preparation & Cutting

  • Open the packaging. Inside, you will find your inlay stickers and a guitar pick.
  • Note that each sticker is marked with a corresponding fret number.
  • Carefully cut the individual stickers with scissors. Cut as close to the stickers as possible.
  • Place the guitar on a flat surface to support the neck. If you don't have a neck rest, you can improvise with a roll of toilet paper.

Step 2: Placing The Stickers

  • Peel off the transparent foil together with the sticker.
  • For electric guitars, slide the sticker underneath the strings by the pickups.
  • For acoustic guitars, slide the sticker underneath the strings above the sound hole.
  • Slide the sticker to the corresponding fret position.

Step 3: Initial Application

  • Apply pressure on the sticker using the transparent foil and your finger to adhere it to the fretboard.
  • Repeat the process for the remaining stickers.
  • Take the pick included in the package and firmly apply pressure to the stickers again.
  • Wait about 30 minutes to allow the stickers to set.
