Um, that's not functional, is it? You didn't like...wire them together..?

the guitar hero buttons don't actually do anything. but i press them like they do.

did you wreck a working guitar hero controller for it?

Actually yeah.

I bought a bundle of 2 hero controllers off of ebay that were labeled as "BROKEN" with intentions of using them to make a keytar.

when i got them it turned out they both worked. I got 'em super cheap and kept one to use with my copy of GH and used the other for my keytar.

You should do some crazy wiring so those GH buttons actually work!

I was thinking the same thing. Like, rig up a laser pointer on the freaking head so you can hit a button and laser point at stuff while making laser beam sound FX.
