I have three good electric guitars, two Deans that I play regularly, and an ESP that has sat in the case since August when I got the first Dean. I don't particularly care for the pickups in the ESP (not a fan of active pickups), and am thinking of swapping them out. Was going to go with a Fernandez sustainer, but I'm not sure.
Then tonight I had an idea, how about swapping the bridge pickup to something I like (I've experimented with a few in my Dean Soltero, have an idea of what I like), and putting some kind of light system in the neck pickup route? I was thinking maybe a couple of LED's or some sort of strobe, if possible I could control it with the volume or tone control even since if it was more of a screwing around guitar I'd just dime the controls anyways. Have like a frequency control for the strobe, and maybe an intensity control?
Anyone know where I could get a small LED that would fit in the size of a humbucker route? Or anyone know of a place that could make the electronics for me?
Yay? Nay? I was going to mod the crap out of the guitar, put an Original Floyd Rose in it, chrome hardware, some other stuff. Why not make it look cool?
