My son is interested in installing an analog VU meter in the body of his electric guitar. We've found this link which describes simple and more complex ways of connecting a VU meter.

He's looking for an effect only, not necessarily an accurate measurement. We were considering a 3K9Ω resistor and a 33μF capacitor, with Schottky diodes. Is it indeed this simple for his purpose?
