Lighted fret boards

Postby Malcolm » Tue Dec 30, 2014 9:37 pm

Think some you guys might like to check out this web site for lighted fret boards. www.live-edge-fretboards.co.uk These are being produced by forum member Richard Topping up here in Scotland.Had the privilege of trying them out when Richard brought some for me to try out, great idea, well made, and good price.Richard is extremely helpful and great guy to deal with. Think these could be of use to both gigging players, also those who have eyesight problems.Am sure Richard will be on forum soon to give more details.

Yes Malcolm is correct, I have been communicating with Richard for the last 3/4 months, I have had one on my guitar in different stages of completion, fine tuning the finishing of the product with Richard. As far as I am aware there will be an article in the December magazine. The web site is worth a look.

This will make a big difference to you Uncle Roy, means you don't have to run your white stick up and down neck to find out where you are on neck.Your (dis)obedient servant. :lol: n

What a great product. UK made, and I bet it is a fraction of the cost of the USA equivalent. :)

You too Mr McMistress. This is my first New Years Eve off in 45 years. Wifey is happy, so I might be in her good books for 5 minutes. :D

Be careful how you sit with your skirt on when you have New Year's Eve photos taken. Otherwise it could start rumours. :lol: :lol:
