So folks, just how tricky is it to change the head on an internal resonator model?

I'm itching to swap out fiberskyn for hide.

I've mounted a few hide heads before, but not done anything on an IR rim.

One hint...if you are going to completely remove the neck (I always do), you should first remove the nameplate from the dowel. The attaching screws will not go through the cut-out on the inside of the IR. You can damage the rim if you try to pull it out with the nameplate attached.
