Default LED guitar mod (w/ pics...)

Hey, to anyone who has seen Ascension live recently you will have noticed I have LEDs on my Ibanez! Well... I've gone and added more and taken cool pics of it for all to see!

yep I sacrificed the middle single coil for it - just took the cover, put LEDs with clips in the spaced for the pole pieces (was a perfect fit!) and filled it with hot glue...

I'm keeping the pickup for another guitar...

I've always wanted to do this to your guitar Hog... the piss in an ice box one

LEDs inside a clear acrylic body would be just awesome!

how much did that set you back if you don't mind me asking you? I have a white Ibanez Rg350dfx which that effect would come in handy for in the future!

One of the best effects I've ever seen with this is ex Asia/Stone Roses/Simply Red/Ian Brown guitarist Aziz Ibrahim, he has LED's all the way up the fretboard on on of his guitars, he also occasionally wears lasers on his hands giving a very interesting effect sometimes.

Cheers
