Thank you DedMan, much appreciated. I like pushing the envelope with each build and custom restoration. Another way of learning is thru mistakes.

Just wondering how heavy is the perspex body?
I was in holden hill music on the weekend and picked up one of the nice looking acrylics, and can say it was very Heavy,
That is very cool. Shame it's 35 years too late for spinal tap. Fantastic!
Here is something I came across which you may be able to interface to the lighting.

Ignore the bastardisation of the axe in the article - towards the end it details using an Arduino Micro to sense the sound and drive multi-colour lights.
I would suggest using a clone Pro Micro (about $6 on fleabay) instead - smaller, cheaper and the same microprocessor.
