Installation is fairly straightforward— drill a tap hole and tap in the spike. Though, you’re working with something very tiny on a precious fret board and all stringed instruments are not alike. It’s all about the tap hole. The neck composition will determine the difficulty level. A pin-prick followed by a tap hole should be made in the neck where you want a string capo'd, maybe at a very slight angle. A drill bit size of 1/32” / .031” / #68 is recommended. Put a mark on the drill bit with a marker to the desired depth. Drill the hole then gently tapped the spike in to the proper depth to hold the string down. You can also put a bit of glue on the shaft for a solid grab. It's also recommended that the neck is held solidly while you do this and a small hand crank drill be used. Be careful if you use a Dremel type drill. It can do some quick damage. Be sure the head is pointed in the right direction before you tap it in. They’re hard to turn once installed. Good Luck !
