What makes you think I'm smart enough for chess?

That makes my electricity bill's balls hurt just looking at that.

Wouldn't those heat up and be too hot to touch?

Maybe it's a starved-plate chessboard and they do the LED trick and add one to make it looks like the tube is glowing? The board makes me think of my VTB-1 that has a blue LED inside it by the tube.

I'm pretty sure those tubes have been taken apart and fitted with LEDs.

This is just what I need to really "warm up" some tracks before going into my harsh, thin-sounding DAW. I hope guitar center carries them for around $150 so I can sound like a pro without breaking the bank.
