Inlay Sticker F-006DT-AW Fret Markers for Guitars & Bass - Dish/Trapezoid Les Paul Style Fret Markers - Aged White Pearl

Looks great and seems to be very secure! My les paul studio had dot inlays so I had to use the long 12th fret marker which came with the set, but that wasn't explained well enough in the instructions insert and if I didn't already know I needed a wider version for that 12th fret, I may have put on the wrong one. If I had to do it again, I would have measured and marked where the inlay should go so it would have been one application and perfectly even. So I suggested to REALLY TAKE YOUR TIME! It was easy to apply, but I still had to take one or two off and reapply because it was applied crooked. You can feel the ends of the sticker on the fretboard but if you’re actually playing it won’t hinder you at all. The set comes with all the inlays on one sheet and the optional, wider 12th fret marker by itself as well as an insert that has instructions printed on it all inside a flimsy plastic sleeve. One shipping flaw I noticed is that my set was bent when it arrived, probably because of a lazy employee who put bigger objects on top of it. It was still usable, but it could have been damaged if something with a hard edge was in the same box. So they should ship these in a hard cardboard sleeve or envelope so it’s stiff and it won’t bend. Overall its great quality and a well-done product.

I bought these for my Epiphone SG Special and they look amazing! From far away or close up you can't tell they're not real. I even messed up the alignment with one of them and it still looks great. My only complaint would be that they have a glossy finish, so in the wrong light they look fake. Other than that I am completely satisfied. Update: After not much playing, I found that the glossy finish is actually just a film that peels off after wearing it down (as other reviewers noted). It has now been about 9 months and I have only had to replace one of the inlays (if you only have 21 frets on your guitar you will have extras). The rest are still firmly attached, and I do some serious bending and vibrato with the 8 gauge strings I put on it. These things can take a beating, just make sure you follow the instructions. You can't push down too hard or for too long when applying. As of my writing this update, the color on the frets I play most on is faded, as other reviewers have mentioned. This doesn't really affect the look negatively to me, and no one would notice on stage. So after almost a year with these inlays I am still completely satisfied.

Its a sticker, looks like feels like, is, a Sticker. As long as you know it will Always LOOK like a sticker and do it Knowing that, its kinda cool if you Dont want a new neck or to Carve in new inlays....

I gave these a try . They adhere fine , and do everything they advertised. But I really prefer the bare rosewood . If you look at them on your neck from 20ft they look ok , but up close not very realistic. But they did go on fast and easy , and they stayed on . I just did not like them , but everyone is different.

I like the way these look on my Epiphone SG. Be sure to take your time. I measured the center of the decals and the center of my fingerboard and made marks on the top layer of the decals and on my frets. This helped tremendously with lining them up. When I peeled off the top plastic protective layer on the of the decals I was very pleased with the results. You can tell they are stickers upon close inspection, but they can always be removed. You can see the dot inlays on a couple of them but you really have to be close. I made sure my fingerboard was very clean and very dry first. The decals stuck tremendously well. Afterword I treated the whole fingerboard with a little vegetable oil (yes) and they have stayed on very well for the past couple of weeks. You can see the original dot markers on a couple of them, but you have to be close and looking for it. I will buy more of these for guitar work in the future I’m sure. I also added $9 brass humbucker covers, an $8 pick guard and some chrome knobs I had lying around. I got this cheap little used SG to look the way I wanted. I’m very pleased.

It's true that the coloration is nice and it's pretty spot on but the lack of light refraction when compared to other real mother of pearl or abalone inlays, it's okay at best. It's pretty washed out when you place a light source on it. However, with that said, the material quality is good and they were easy to apply and as long as you don't place a whole lot of pressure on them when initially applying, they're easy to pull off without deformation to the sticker. From a distance they look legit and it does add to the overall look of my guitar. I'll let 'em ride for a while and see how they last.

Great product. Just be sure to apply without the strings on and it's a piece of cake!
