Follow this step-by-step walkthrough to install the EZ Glide OG Fret Button Pack Mono Edition on your CRKD OG-style guitar controller, with checkpoints to avoid common mistakes.

Quick answer

To install the EZ Glide OG Fret Button Pack Mono Edition, you'll need a Phillips head screwdriver and a Torx head screwdriver (not included). Remove the old buttons, seat each new Mono button firmly, and reassemble—checking alignment at every step.

Why the Mono Edition needs a careful swap

The Mono EZ Glide buttons are precision molded for a seamless fit and feature a matte EZ Glide finish for smooth, responsive play. That snug fit means rushing the installation can lead to misaligned buttons or a loose neck. Take your time and verify each button clicks into place before moving on.

Tools you'll need (and what's not included)

You must supply both a Phillips head screwdriver and a Torx head screwdriver; neither is included with the pack. Using the wrong size or type can strip screws, so match your drivers to the screws on your guitar controller before you start.

Step-by-step installation

  1. Power down and remove the neck: Turn off your guitar controller and disconnect any cables. If your OG-style controller has a detachable fret neck, release it according to the controller's instructions. Common mistake: forgetting to power down can lead to accidental button presses during the swap. Always disconnect power before disassembly.
  2. Remove the old fret buttons: Using the correct Phillips and Torx screwdrivers, carefully unscrew the fasteners holding the fret buttons or neck assembly. Keep screws in a tray so they don't get lost. Common mistake: using a worn or wrong-sized driver can strip screw heads. Match driver size to screw head to avoid damage.
  3. Seat the new Mono buttons: Align each EZ Glide Mono button with its slot and press firmly until it sits flush. The precision molding should provide a seamless fit; if a button feels tight, check for debris or misalignment rather than forcing it. Common mistake: forcing a button can bend the contact or crack the button. A button that doesn't seat easily needs realignment, not force.
  4. Reassemble and test: Reinstall the screws and neck, then power on and test each fret button for smooth, responsive action. Common mistake: over-tightening screws can crack plastic or impede button movement. Test all buttons before closing up; tighten screws snugly, not excessively.
