Thank goodness, >>34341 is right that one kinda sucks.
Here's a violin or viola or something that has light up parts, maybe you could use LEDs to good effect?

I'm not that familiar with instruments, nor do I know what the pipe on the right is for.

You wanna steamfuck a guitar? Here's how I did mine(i'd post picks but Im not home).

Thrift store. Old turntables and cassette decks have hella beast-awesome gadgetry inside them. I spend a grand total of 13 dollars and about 45 minutes making my Jay Turser strat copy look like it was a warship from fucking "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow."
