If you've built furniture you have the skills. It wasn't that hard.

I also installed a K&K Pure Western mini in my Larrivee OM-03R and the process was virtually identical. The difference being that I had to ream out the endpin (Larrivee installs oversized endpins that can be removed to accommodate a 1/4 jack) and the directions told me to glue on the transducers 1 at a time. If I had to do it over again, I'd have just made a jig to install all 3 transducers simultaneously as I did with the K&K - just to remove any ambiguity and to reduce the number of chances I could inadvertently glue my fingers to the bridge plate.
