Work log for my Black/blue/White Guitar with lights.

Here is a limited work log of my first Gh mod.

Lacking proper tools I had to get a little creative with the way I did this (example: hot glue gun in place of soldering iron).If I had known it would have come out so good I would have taken pics of every step,but to be honest I wasn't even sure if when I finished it would actually work.

enjoy.

Wow! That looks amazing. I really like the "window" and the white around the neck. Oh, and those might be the cleanest looking fret-buttons I've seen. How'd you get them so perfect??

Thanks for the compliments.

It was a long process getting the fret buttons as perfect as possible.I think I spent about an hour on average for each one just sanding around the edges making sure they all had the same thickness of color showing.

Luckely I have patience.

That looks really nice, what did you use on the fret keys?

Just painted it with some black krylon fusion ,waited a couple days,then dry sanded around the edges all the way till the color showed lightly through,then moved to wet sanding to smooth it all out,once that was done I put 4 (or maybe it was 5) coats of clear.

Slickkid 53 I used the power from the curcuit board inside the guitar to power the lights,red and brownish orange wires, if your looking at the board with the wires at the bottom its the second and fourth. heres a pic
