Quoted from desertT1:6. How blasphemous is it to put LED's in an old EM like this?
I'm going to go out on a limb here:
Everyone either tries to make the oldies a restored original, or tries to get LEDs that imitate incandescent bulbs. What if you went over the top on LEDs and color instead? Vibrant color choices, maybe metallic sparkle paint and other fancy schmancy mods. A unique one of a kind creation. Sick colors. It could work if you put some thought into it.
