How to: 10-20 LEDs in electric guitar powered by coin cell and with color/function control?

Components & Accessories LEDs

Hi,

I am trying to figure out what is possible or not for a project. I would

like to install 10-20 small LED lights into the control and pick up

cavities of an electric guitar, and I would like those lights to be powered

by battery, ideally coin cell(s). Also, I would like to be able to control

the function and color of those lights. Is this possible? I have zero experience

with this so don’t know what to buy. I would love any tips or help at all!

I have attached a photo of the guitar with blue dot graphics to indicate

where lights may go.

Thank you!

Matt

I’d be really tempted to start with an off-the-shelf LED string and see about shortening it as needed. The battery box and electronics could probably be modified to fit in the guitar body.

Something like this:

If you’re looking to change the color of your LEDs or make them blink, [one of these might work.](https://www.sparkfun.com/products/16792)
