An illuminated instrument strap. The illuminated instrument strap includes an instrument strap having a fastener to removably secure the illuminated instrument strap to an instrument. A light operably connected to a control box is disposed along the length of the instrument strap. The control box includes a logic that is at least partially stored in a non-transitory computer readable medium and that, when executed at least in part by a controller, causes the light to illuminate in a pre-programmed pattern. In another embodiment, the control box includes a microphone, that transmits audio input information to a controller, causing the controller to synchronize an illumination of the light to the audio input information in a music visualization pattern.
