Is it hard to install the HipShot on my guitar?
Usually installation is easy and straight forward and can be done by the musicians themselves. Installation involves removing the strap button screw, positioning the felt lined Hipshot on the guitar and reinstalling a new strap button screw which we provide. The new strap button screw is the same diameter as your old screw, however, it is slightly longer to insure secure fit. Then you simply restring the guitar and play. If bridge work is necessary it is usually minor and does not detract from the value of your guitar. In fact the Hipshot installs so easily that you can switch it from one guitar to another between gigs.
