Glad you enjoy the content. Got some ideas for 2024 but only if we have time. It’s very busy around here as we still work regular jobs and homestead and then make cool things! Harder to do long form videos and I always forget to make shorts.
I actually didn’t sand anything. For the buttons and the button cover I just printed them at high detail. Then if the buttons were rubbing a bit too much I would change the button size my a percentage point smaller. If you plan on spray painting I would for sure size them down as the paint is going to add layer to everything and could depending on the paint as stickiness so I would experiment a bit.
Not really. You have to solder the wire to the switches. Any hobby or hardware store cheap soldering iron will work most times they are like 10-15 bucks. But I highly recommend splurging on this one amzn.to/3Z4kUPZ with this power cable amzn.to/404Xxr1 and this power brick amzn.to/3Z2cybQ Then for wire to wire connections the heat shrinks with solder in them are the best solutions but normal soldering and electrical tape wrap works fine too.
Not that I can think of. I wouldn’t worry about soldering it’s actually really easy and not anything to fear. I would suggest buying helping hands as that will decrease frustration.
You don't have to use that much infill I think 10 -20 percent is enough it's mainly about how heavy you want it to feel in the end. Now the buttons I mess with different infill and infill patterns depending on what I want to feel like and act.
You have to use low profile switches for this print but other models support full size. As for type of switch IE white clicky or red silent you can use any type that fits your wants however I have only been able to find white and red switches constantly. The ones I use are linked in the description.
Look up the Arduino mods for guitar hero guitars that is probably going to be your solution. katana mods is a guy that does it but I have only seen his work on PS2 Kramer guitars but I would imagine it works on any model as you are replacing the main board with Arduino.

homesteading and modding gh guitars , this channel is awesome

when youre a farmer but then you gotta start making clone hero videos
Content is content. LestradeGames is my real gaming channel but figured why not put this one here.
I’m currently building a controller out of an old guitar. This video is helping me plan out exactly what I’m gonna do
I am glad it was helpful. Modding a real guitar sounds tough let us know how it goes.
For the buttons and all of your parts did you sand them by hand and spray paint? finally got all my pieces printed

Hi, I have everything to do this guitar, but I can' t buy the solder iron, can I do this without soldering?
Not really. You have to solder the wire to the switches. Any hobby or hardware store cheap soldering iron will work most times they are like 10-15 bucks. But I highly recommend splurging on this one amzn.to/3Z4kUPZ with this power cable amzn.to/404Xxr1 and this power brick amzn.to/3Z2cybQ

@@bigtophomestead Ok thanks
Is there a way to connect the wires to the buttons without soldering? Ive never done it nefore and not sure if i want this to be the first time.

any idea if you could use normal cherry mx switches as i cant find low profile in my country
If you modded the neck to be thicker you probably could use regular size switches but by default it is designed for low profile.
Nice video
Thanks so much for this video!
How much infill did you use?
You don't have to use that much infill I think 10 -20 percent is enough it's mainly about how heavy you want it to feel in the end. Now the buttons I mess with different infill and infill patterns depending on what I want to feel like and act.

@@bigtophomestead ok thanks
It there a way to make a wireless ps3 guitar to a wired ps3 guitar? Plz help

Can anyone link a video or picture for the wiring if you use for instance a arduino pro micro

I believe the model was deleted off thingiverse
The model maker moved to printables as thingiverse has gone down hill in quality
