Most of the time, the audience is limited to only audible appreciation of the performances of the musical instrument, so that they do not feel visual pleasure.

Therefore, the conventional acoustic guitar or acoustic guitar was adopted by the player who plays the acoustic guitar or acoustic guitar because the method adopted by the performer to provide the audience with this visual listening element of musical performance was mainly an external instrument such as a stage apparatus including lighting. Has been used only as a means of conveying the sound of the performance so far, and because it cannot visually provide a musical atmosphere in addition to the sound of performance, it can not provide additional effects to deliver it to the audience. The appearance of acoustic guitars or acoustic guitars with marking means was desired.

Therefore, the present invention has been devised to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and detects the vibration of the strings when playing the acoustic guitar or acoustic guitar, and according to the strength of the sound, such as the front of the guitar, head, bridge and fingerboard, etc. By making it possible to emit colorful light with various colors, it is possible to listen to music while playing guitar and to enjoy music in a visually inspiring state such as watching the equalizer of audio equipment. It is an object of the present invention to provide a guitar having a light emitting function that can be doubled.
