Myself and Keith White are making better 24mm 10 string polished Stailess Steel Bars with a colour fading/changing dome..I will YouTube the finished item when done. Waiting for the better electronics to arrive from Germany next week. The Bars are made up already.. These will be very special with a 3 colour RGB LED in the dome...Switching may be with a tilt upright if I can source the parts otherwise a microdot switch on the flat end of the bar.. Is there much interest in this fellow forumities??

What does it achieve other than making the steel player conspicuous ? Confused

Whoa!
David, if you can extend a quarantee to each buyer that we will make our playing sound like yours; I'm all for it; I do enjoy your clips on " U-Tube very much. Especially the rendition of " BUCKAROO". Can't say I've ever heard it played any smoother. Congratulations!! What price range will be on your BARS?..Bernie

It achieves nothing Alan but make you conspicuous, looks great in a darkened ballroom though. Its a gimmick yes, but there might be a notch in the market here! I could retire if all 6700 members of the forum bought one!! Or buy some more steels! Price? Dont know yet Bernie, Gotta get it looking better than the prototype with wires and batteries hidden in my hand..Don't know how I would get on posting them to USA anyway, imagine, a steel bar, full of batteries and wires? It would probably get ripped to bits at every checkpoint on airmail!! Anyway, I will make a goodun' and YouTube it for a laugh! Laughing DH
