I've had them on my Squier Affinity P for a couple of years now, and they're still holding and looking good. Lends a touch of class to an inexpensive instrument.

I got some for Christmas (yea!!); I'll post before and after photos. A set of blocks for my SR-405: the quilted maple with simple dots is uninspiring. A set of dishes for my AXS-32: Ibanez thought no inlays would look cool, but I find it annoying. The 12th fret is gonna be odd, as there are two small dots near the low E string...

I did the bass last night; just eyeballed the alignments like the YouTube videos. It looks pretty good, but I managed to put the first fret block on a smidgeon crooked. I'm gonna measure and mark when I do the guitar and post pictures of both.

The flash reflecting off the inlay stickers makes them look brighter than they truly are. I'll try some better photos later...

I have a set on my Squier P Special and a couple are a little crooked but unless you're looking for it, you can't tell. Then I bought a PRS Tremonti, one of the few models without the bird inlays. I couldn't have a birdless PRS. Ordered a set from Jockomo on Ebay.

Small update. The block on the first fret was blatantly crooked (when viewed along with the strings), so I decided to take a crack at repositioning it as well as the 5th fret block. It came up pretty easy and intact. Repositioned, and it's still sticking just fine.
