My Custom LED Guitar - One of a kind!

[ChiangHsuCheng]

Can you tell me which IC you use?

[alienrush]

Very cool, good job

[TheTechGuider]

Very intuitive.

[RombusEvilBones]

Share the schematic you capitalist pig! (??)

[jessejk91]

DOPE AS HELL. I want. Loved the santeria solo btw

[philam64]

Very nice

[tsedik]

How? I want the same mode for my guitar!

[TheAlmostGod888]

Now instead of LED you use fire.

[Halopedian]

i can't express how cool this is.

[Trupablazka]

Could you send me a diagram of that twinkling led madness. I'd really appreciate it. I'd like to install it in my bass guitar. My address is : blashko@wp.pl

[Hilsong3]

1st THATS AWESOME

second THE GUITAR SOUNDS soo ....... AWESOME it has awesome sound on the video :D:D:D its awesome

[shonymusica]

Beautiful guitar, make sure you label the guitar at the antilosta website just in case you loose it one day, I have all my valuables labeled with antilosta and recently had an expensive camera returned back to me after having lost it away from home in one of my gigs.

[Designandrew]

I thought the flickering would be too distracting and also add too much circuitry too a guitar, so for my brother bass I used a 30 SM LED ring light rated at 12 v, running to a box containing a lithium 9v with switch attached to his strap. It works really well, and looks brilliant at gigs.

[sova182]

You know what would be really cool? If you could change the LED color by choosing it thought a switch.

[sova182]

Man, this is really cool! Your LED is the nicer one in youtube. What guitar is that you have? Cheers!

[TonyPeesTunes]

Awesome! I'm only in the pondering phase for LEDs right now. I'm glad I came across this.

[gozoisawesome]

would it be possible for you to make thee wiring and set up for a telecaster and send it in the post to the United Kingdom through ebay and i would buy it ???? plz respond

[gozoisawesome]

can u plz make a vid on how to make it !!!!!! noone on youtube has a good one, will u be the first ????? plz its so cool

gozoisawesome

[RevizedAZN]

So much funk when you play back in black xD

[jincasa]

I WANT LIGHTUP DRUMS! :D :D :D

[biro753]

Hey i was wondering what u used as a transistor......like how did u make the LEDs switch on from the low current from the pickups, ive made a beat sensing circuit like this before, but it was for my mp3 player so the current would be stronger for that.

[soldea]

I'v been wondering if it would work if i would put a led strip to my guitar body with sticker or something and then power it up with 12v battery and put the battery somewhere like the floyd rose back panel, theres just right size room for the battery. thanks in advance :)

[TheRandomFilmers]

haha, konstantine..

[leonwiekenthemnie]

i am also currently doing this, i do it very, very simple: a thin copper wire goes along the neck, touching all frets, then that wire goes into the body, goes through a couple of leds, the battery and is then connected to my bridge, this way, you close the circuit by fretting a note, the only thing however is that they wont light up with natural harmonics, but i dont use them that often, so that doesnt matter. (i might put up a video;P)

[kdubovenko]

To halimilah, it's the solo from Santeria by sublime

[halimilah]

love your play on 0:32 what song is it?

[sixstringworshiper]

holy cow....that is awesome! I'm trying to get ideas for my explorer that I am rebuilding and bringing out of retirement....I really enjoyed the video....and the guitar is INCREDIBLE...great job..hope you build more.

[markusrh95]

Awesome! Maybe I should put some LED-lights in my Les Paul :3

[AchivementHunterz]

10th sub gets 4 subs

[YOUDUDE56]

sound sensored or something?

[3CountChains]

thats SSSSSSSSSSSSSSiiiiiiiiiicccccc­ccckkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! scroll down 2 see my guitar vid.

[smeagolrick]

Hey man, do you have an circuit for this one with only 1 humbucker?

Gr Rick

[juanchonsboca]

If you have to solo like Herman Li from Dragonforce, probablly the leds will explod LOL

[bobylite100]

hey bro is there a way to do tht with my drums?

[MastersfortheMaster]

@bobylite100 I'll chime in and say if you wanted to you could build the same thing but use a piezo sensor and a pot for the sound source and attatch the piezo to whatever drum you would like to activate the circuit. For multiple drums you could use multiple sensors and wire them in parallel and they would share the same set of lights. Or build separate units for each drum. Just a thought.

[ihalloway]

Just put glowing condom and you are ready to go ;]

[kdubovenko]

@ihalloway hahahahaha I'm working on that right now, Ill post a full video demonstration once it's done.

[AchivementHunterz]

@ihalloway lol

[30colpi]

what kind of LED did you use?

[kdubovenko]

@30colpi Its a standard 3.2V 30mA white LED

[30colpi]

@kdubovenko Thanks!!

[soadilias]

what circuit did u used to connect the leds (with the pickups i guess)??

[kdubovenko]

@soadilias Yeah the middle pickup is dierectly connected to the LED circuit

[soadilias]

@kdubovenko can you tell me the way that are connected?

i mean is the circuit of the leds parallel with the pickup?if so how are they connected with the battery?

sorry if im annoying...

[karakaraswee]

what song is that?

[DavidFrom209]

couldn't stop laughing after 0:02 when you said your name! Who names their kid Constantine?

other than that it's good video, cool guitar, and nice playing!

[kdubovenko]

@DavidFrom209 Haha well, I'm glad you liked the video and had a good laugh at my name, I'm from Ukraine, it's a common name there. It's fairly common in Slavic countries as well as Greece.

[DavidFrom209]

@kdubovenko sorry man i'm from the United States. We hardly ever hear that name here.

[deathbladez13]

Thinking 2 EMG 81 actives for the bridge and neck, and maybe a EMG S1 single coil , that or a Seymour Duncan single coil.

[kdubovenko]

@deathbladez13 they are seymour duncans

[deathbladez13]

I think im going to re-do my new york pro with 2 humbuckers and a single coil in the middle, and i want LED's on the fret dots that light up the LED(s) near the fret(s) im playing on, and around the humbucker/pickup like yours.

[MrWhatsHisName100]

Nice lights and nicely played!

I'de like my guitar 2 be like that!

[kdubovenko]

@MrWhatsHisName100 thank you!

[Piroenn]

Cool dude nice work

[kdubovenko]

@Piroenn thank you!

[BlueTreecko]

Hey what guitar is that one??

[Glockenator]

@BlueTreecko Its homemade. He said it in the description

[BlueTreecko]

@Glockenator I'd give him $800 for that guitar...sounds so damn good!

[kdubovenko]

@BlueTreecko Its fully custom, built from scratch!

[BlueTreecko]

Wow a Floyd!

[BonScottjoder]

vaya cagada

[TheAndyRayz]

i want this guitar

!!!!

[CoachGrima]

very creative! awesome work.

[kdubovenko]

@CoachGrima thank you!

[kamaboko1]

all you need now are those shoes that light up with each step.

[kdubovenko]

@kamaboko1 haha yep!

[HennoxLane]

oh and btw, I would LOVE to see the schematics in there.. I'm guessing you used a switching transistor (mosfet?) connected to your guitar-output and a resistor to limit the current from the 9V?

[kdubovenko]

@HennoxLane Actually i used an IC, but if I were to use transistors I would have to go with a BJT because it has much greater amplification capability as compared to a mosfet (FET)

[HennoxLane]

that is So nice ^^

[PanndaKat]

Wow.

Awesome.

:)

:D

[tagman124]

look up twinkler led lights it should take you to them

[stoneybaksum]

does someone has got an electrical drawing of how it's installed between the pickups?

[imicius]

How long does the 9V battery last?

[kdubovenko]

@imicius when the LED are off the battery is completely disconnected, when the LEDs are on they only require about 160mA of current so they last a very very very long time

[XAlphaZEROX]

Would it be possible for something like that on my pick guard and not have anything drilled through my guitar?? It looks amazing, I want my guitar to glow like that.

[EskilRask]

dude, you have awesome sound on that guitar :D

[synesthesia67]

DUDE!!!!!!!!!!! awesome...I must have it...

[stagglespaulhero]

:O

:O

OH MY GOD

ITS

SO

COOL!!!

[FordIsBetter]

cool setup. EVOs are great pickups, nice custom body, and gotta love the Ibanez necks with a floating trem. Love the lights!

[TheElecGuitarMan]

That really rocks dude!!!

[carefulwiththat]

I recognized the second song was Santeria by sublime! Awesome!

[DamianTheBeast]

kick ass guitar

[hermitcrabstuff34]

what is the firs song

[BlackZ123]

"back in black" by acdc.... just like THE most popular rocksong ever

[joshkalsi]

its a great song, but thats not AC/DC playing it on there...

[handmajor]

yeah dude how dont you know back in black

[jimothy9799]

hey wut did u use to make the led's react with the notes, like something that senses sound or vibration, just curious..

[jolibee67]

w0w u play soo awsome!!! rockout! :D

[petaillemix]

Good job realy cool and very professionnal look !

[vanzXcyRus]

where can i get the LED lights? hardware? auto shop? moto shop?

[Koelker12]

radio shack

[theultimaterockr]

Evo's rock. I'm installing a Steve Special, a YJM and a Protrack into my project strat

[flargrbargr]

it looks just like an ibanez rg series guitar. i have one for those series

[kdubovenko]

some rg parts were used to build the guitar, the body and led design are 100% original

[PooPoo2U]

lol, you're an idiot. it's shaped like a tele, and rgs look nothing like teles.

[postaldude2250]

looks more like a music man axis style body

[PooPoo2U]

@flargrbargr: lol, looks just like an rg? an rg is a superstrat shape, this is a tele

[kdubovenko]

@PooPoo2U actually the design of this guitar was based on Ibanez JEM but influenced by Tele so you guys are both right

[screaminmetal]

IMA EMAIL U BUT UHM.........DUDE IF YOU COULD DO MY B.C. WARLOCK WITH RED LEDZ!!!!!!!!!!!id be pretty happy!hahaha

[thebtompsonexpress]

Dude sick. Much brighter then others. I wonder if i can do that with my Fretlight? Can you do other colors?

[kdubovenko]

Thanks :). Any color is possible, I just chose white

[thebtompsonexpress]

Sweet. My Fretlight has red leds in the fretboard and matched up with you led system in red would be sick.

[BetaFilmHvS]

white is one of the most power consuming led colors

blue white are the same thing, a white led is actually a blue one with a yellow filter.

and uv leds consume the most power

so if a circuit can be made using the white, it can use any color, with the right resistor of course XD

check out my modded xbox 360 project

[fjferd]

can you wire it up so it electrocutes your balls everytime you strum? that would be sick!

[gilcrgang5]

dude.. that is fucking cool as hell!

[bigmac2992]

yo wats up my names mike im big into makeing my own guitar i curently have lights on my guitat that i made in electronic cuz im in a trades school and i can build pretty much anything i know you dont wana give away how you made it but can you tell me what component like is it a microfone photodiode motion senser like what is it then i can build a circuit around it just email me back through utube thnx so much Constintine

pce

Mike M

[RobDeS]

Im designing a guitar right now and I'm looking everywhere for these led lights that react to your strumming I see yours are custom, My Guitar is going to have an Irish theme, so i'd need green LED's, got any tips?

[aceman199]

Can you make each string light up for whenever I play it instead. actually can you make each fret light up when I fret it. thnx pls send me schematic asap

[kdubovenko]

Haha, thanks Leland

No, but I can make you face light up!!!

[aceman199]

How dare you reveal my true identity!! >:-O

Now my fans will attack me here on my anonymous youtube account too!

[kdubovenko]

haha yes, the'll probably try to hunt you down in Colorado, boy are they going to be angry when they find out how fictitious you really are. I'll pray(have a short jam) for you.

[kerric123456]

can you this for giutar hero giutars???? plz reply

[kdubovenko]

Yes I believe I can, although I've never taken one apart, but I have an idea of how to do it.

[kerric123456]

if you can do it how much would you charge for it?

[kdubovenko]

Give me a few days, I will borrow a friend's guitar hero guitar and see how hard it is to do something similar and then I could tell you the price. Where did you want the LEDs located, in the neck, the headstock or the body?

[kerric123456]

dosn't really matter but i guess body

[POPTUB]

Guess What? Your video made it into our What POPTUB's Watching segment. Can you dig it? Check it out on our channel now and don't forget to subscribe!

[youoyuouo]

how do you do that? can you do it to mine

[kdubovenko]

What kind of guitar do you have?

[juuse94]

hey would it be ok to send me the wiring blueprints if you have one, i mean like the wires from led to led etc

[kdubovenko]

I can't do that, I'm sorry, it's my secret.

[aceman199]

:D:D:D really cool :)

[aceman199]

I'll give you $.15 for the guitar.

[kdubovenko]

ha...haha...ha how about $15 ... hundred. And I wouldn't even trade it for that!

[gorillaz549]

haha. wow! that looks so amazing.
