Technics 1200 question [X-post]

[infinitefoamies]

Hey guys I am building an extreme pair of 1200's and am looking to build an illuminated tonearm such as seen in this

.

I want to keep my s-arm shape as I do listen for enjoyment on top of learning to scratch. I also want it to be RGB controllable as every other light on the system will be.

My current idea is to used a frosted acrylic tube, but I am concerned with resonance issues. What would you guys use? It does not have to be $400,000 audiophile turntable quality, but I like my fidelity.

Also wanted to know if I can ground the ground wire to the chassis of the turntable and mixer and all components to create a bonded system?
