Anyone have ideas about how to add a light/backlight to an instrument?


I would've thought that LED's would be better than bulbs.. last longer ..


But aren't LEDs very focused, directional light? I'm hoping for a soft
illumination - not another bright light.


Some LEDs are focused, some are defused. Worst case, you simply take
the focused LEDs and work on them a little with some sand paper (or a
sand blaster, if you have access to a small one.)
