    Why do you want them out?

      be careful when trying, i attempted this on a mh400nt and cracked the flame top around the ferrule. i think the proper way is to heat them up then tap them out. I tried just tapping them out from the backside of the guitar. I was attempting to swap my black nickel hardware to all black.

        If you're going for black, this is definitely an easier option

        Just paint them. Use black enamel model paint. Touch up as needed. A lot easier than ripping them fuckers out.

          Does that last? Anyone got a picture of the result?
