Roger was really good about redoing them after some technical issues with the first batch. He took them back and totally reworked them and came up with a new design internally that helps these perform much better than the originals. the leds are turned on by either holding the shaft and turning the cap clockwise to turn and lock on or as i have found the easiest way is to turn the knobs full clockwise and gently turn the cap until they lock on. the batteries are right on top inside the cap making replacement super easy. he also was able to put 2 set screws in which makes mounting and securing really easy. thanks roger i will be back with some more photos can anyone show me how to reduce the size? please!!!!! matthew90046 Member Username: matthew90046 Post Number: 55 Registered: 1-2005 Posted on Saturday, October 11, 2008 - 10:12 am:    Those look sweet...

Giving me plenty to think about for my next custom - or maybe even just an upgrade to the basses I already have.

Roger's THG stuff is not cheap, but his work is excellent and he does stand behind his work.
