    Hey Zandit, the ferules are pressed in but they have about a 1mm thick lip that sits ontop of the body surface.

    I think they look super sexy, think about a string through for a future build

    I'm going to be using them on my Silent guitar build. I'm just a little worried about drilling the thickness of my body which needs to be wide enough to handle the acoustic pick up. I have access to a drill press at work which will make it easier.
    I'm also wondering what to do with the top of the body. Since I'm using an acoustic bridge to take the Piezo UST(Under Saddle Transducer) do I use ferrules top and bottom on the body?

    Sorry for the thread jack Dave!
