Step 7Apply copper contact pads
On the circuit board we put on some copper tape that would become the contact pads for the LEDs. We put down two here, but in the end only used one for each LED for reasons that will become clearer soon.
The original design, that you see here, has the copper flat on the board, but after some testing we pulled the copper tape up on one side and folded that end under so as to make a very rough spring.

you could apply the copper over the rubber or (as a last resort) cut the spaces between the pads, making sure they can still spring back and still fit in place without moving.

I fixed this problem by taking the grey parts from an SG and hot gluing them onto the WT fretboard. The rubber part from the WT guitar fit into the SG as well, so both guitars still work. If you try this, make sure the contacts (those 2 dots what complete the circuit) line up between the rubber part and the board.
