Fiber Optic Sidemarkers Update

[Monty-Jay]

Not a huge update, but I thought I would put up a few pics. This is still the same cheapo testing neck in all pics, so please ignore the wood filler and misc holes I've got two gauges of fiber and I'm waiting on a shipment since I ran out of one gauge, so I should have everything up and running pretty soon.

So far, things have been falling into place very nicely and I think I've got everything figured out, including a few different options like wiring it directly to the EMGs so that they light up when you are plugged in (and you can use a switch in the cavity) or using a push/pull pot to turn it on/off instead of a mini toggle.

I personally like blue the best. Red, orange and white also work very well. But the others I have (purple, green, yellow) are not as bright so I'm shopping for some more LEDs.

The blue is tight.

If you're selling, I'm buying.

Thanks...They will look much better once it's on a "real" fretboard I'm still using this one so I can go through all the steps a few times and make sure I have everything down.

Several people have asked if I would sell/install them and I'm willing to do that, but it might not be for awhile since I want to make sure everything goes well, especially after re-gluing the fretboard. But so far so good
