Translucent is different than those clear ones.

Sorry, didn't realize that.  If you want something really customized to your exact idea, I think there are people who make one-off custom ball tops on Shoryuken.

For lighting the sticks, I found some pre-drilled stick shafts for sale, so you wouldn't have to worry about that:

That fits a JLF.  It's the same dimensions as the stock shaft, but they call it the "short" shaft because they also sell a longer one.  They also have short and long hollow shafts for the Seimitsu LS-32.

This could work out, paradise sells the joysticks you recommend and hollow short shafts for them.  I wondered what the difference was between the long and short and thanks for the tip that the short are the regular versions.  They don't have balltops I like, really dislike the bubbly ones...  Will have to see if I can find the custom ones on shoryuken.

Now I need to find some buttons.  I may just get some IL clear ones from paradise with RGB and maybe get some clear balltops instead of going translucent.  What do you think of IL buttons paradise sells?
