In this video, I walk you through the process of upgrading the inlays on my Epiphone Lucille electric guitar. This guitar came with plastic acrylic inlays and I wanted to replace them with mother of pearl inlays that I bought pre-cut from StewMac. As with any project, there were some unexpected difficulties, but in the end, it came out really nice and (other than sanding through a fingernail) it wasn't too hard- just time-consuming! Hoping this will help any others out there who are thinking of replacing the inlays on their guitar for a higher-end look.
