The LED Guitar: Fender Telecaster Meets Custom LED Video Display

Immerge Interactive has just completed the design, fabrication and development of a custom built LED Guitar for Philadelphia’s The Insiders Band. Built specifically for the act, the LED guitar syncs up with the lead singer and guitarist’s performance showcasing real-time visuals that sync to the music and existing light show.

The guitar display is a custom CNC milled faceplate, mapped with individually addressable LEDs which turns the whole face of the instrument into a video screen. Integrated with Immerge’s software that drives the band’s existing light show, the guitar visuals are synced with the entire show to provide cohesive looks and stand out solos.

This piece draws immediate crowd attention during the band’s highlight 80’s medley. Paired with the their unique remix style, this element of their show leaves the crowd with a unique memory of a stand out performance. Built custom for The Insiders Band, the guitar will continue to be integrated into their upcoming shows in the Philadelphia and South Jersey area.

The LED Guitar is the first in a series of Immerge Elements: custom built interactive light & video elements for stages and spaces. All of Immerge’s creations focus on the real-time manipulation of unique visual displays. Elements are custom LED or video displays that are part lighting, part video, part hardware and part software. By developing both the display and the content Immerge is able to create one of a kind visual experiences.
