Retro-Fit LED's for you guitar & bass... Funky!

Check it out... I've added this new section to my 'Prince & His Guitars' site for now. It will soon have a site all of it's own though.

Quite a few of you have expressed in interest in the LED's so here they are.

I'm working on a Cloud guitar with purple illuminated Symbol fret markers as we speak.

This is cool but how is it powered?

I've got enough battery powered hullabaloo around me already

Just 1 single 9v battery. This will give you around 70 hours of continuous use.
The battery either fits under in your control cavity or we will rout a new cavity and fit a purpose-made battery box. No worries!

The LEDs are activated via either a mini toggle switch or by way of a push/pull pot - your choice!

The pics on my site don't do them justice at all - they are seriously bright!
Illuminated LEDs are kinda hard to photograph.

Might be cool if it weren't close to $200 dollars, I'm sure with the work of installing it's a good price. More importantly, nobody's ever going to drill into the Gibson's neck without a knuckle sandwich

Hi Lewis. I think you might need to clear out your internet cache 'cos everyone else can view this page fine. Also try shift+f5 to refresh the page (assuming you are on a PC, of course). This will load the page from fresh rather than looking at an old cached copy. Hey this is just like being at work biggrin
