I was wondering about this principle, and now I found out it really exists:

The Fretlight Guitar
See:

You name a scale and the relevant frets light up.
I was just wondering about the invention out of curiosity and I am not planning to buy it.
I found it intersting anyway.
Does anyone here use this and what are your experiences?

I, at first, thought this would be a great learning tool but I dunno if it wouldn;t kink the shit out of your neck constantly staring at the LEDs. I'm not sure.

just get little round stickers in different colors...you can get from your local sign shop...cheap

ehhh i'm not too keen on it ,

i mean how long does it REALLY take to learn a scale pattern anyway ?

i think it would end up being quite detramental .. i mean when your under pressure real hardcore pressure and your stressing out you go back to the patterns or licks you learnt solidly , with this i imagine you would try and think back to the lights and when they wern't there on a regular guitar.. CHAOS !

ok that's prolly an exageration hehe .. point is .. i think most people could prolly learn the scale patterns themselves solidly in a few hours .
