The switches I used were from Redragon, they are a little different from these. They have a pin in the middle, so I made a hole right in the middle of the board in the square where the switches fit. I had to make a thick hole, but luckily the metal pins where the soldering is done were exactly the same as those on the board. So I fitted and soldered them directly to the original rails, so I didn't have to fit the wires like it was done in the video. It turned out great, I thought it wouldn't work because the Redragon switches are smaller than the Alps White Click used by Red Octane and Activision. Now I have a guitar that will take a long time to have problems with the strum bar.

@yuramiah

Thanks for this. I absolutely botched my first attempt at replacing these switches so good to know there's a way I can save it.

@wiredbagatthisworst

Yesterday I modded mine with red switches too, maybe I'll try clicky switches this weeknd by the force of response, it press so much when I Whammy 😂

Thank you for your content, it is confusing starting to solder but funny in somehow, info is power

@Treble_V2

This makes me want to try linear switches on a strum bar, maybe even tactile switches on the frets (possibly choc browns)

ive had an ordeal with strim switches lately. i mentioned on a different video of yours that i thought my xplorer (that the seller paid 5 bucks for) had quad overstrum so i bought switches but it turned out that it was a bug with the controller autodetect of guitar hero world tour. if autodetect is left on in the controller binding menu some controllers mess up and have a weird thing where they strum over 2-4 options on the main menu so i couldnt even scroll to quickplay and see if it was the controller itself or the game being funky. after i found that out i learned my xplorer was perfectly fine and i was left with 2 spare switches. my tac V had super squeaky switches and it just so happened that they matched the 2 prong xplorer switches so i swapped them out and my V is now even more of a dream.

 i also tried fixing my rb1 strat with some limit switches since i was at it. i bought the kind that had the bar and the roller since they were the cheapest. i chopped the roller off and just had the bar on the switch still attached and i mounted them up in the strum but when i strummed one of the bars of the switches would get caught underneath or stuck on top of the strum bars ledges. i couldnt find any solution no matter what combo i tried of height or orientation and the bars started to get some side to side wiggle so i just ended up snapping the bars off both and using them like they were the kind that is just the button with no bar. it works but i stole the whammy out of it to fix my v since the v came in the mail with its whammy snapped off at the seam where one of the o-rings was. i could send you pics of all my wacky mods if you care. do you happen to have any spare longer style whammys lying around? id only need the bar and the e clip to get my rb1 going again.

@FranklynEU

Camera angle is perfect as is, no need to change imo :)

@real_fr_real

soldering in new switches as i watch this video

@1upnolan340

by any chance do you have any videos on doing a left handed guitar where the whammy placement is on the opposite side?

@donaldtrump4206

when you drill into the board to add the springs, (something i was thinking of doing myself) and i was unsure how to go about it. going thru the board with the trace circuitry didn't affect the function? its a genius mod doing spring loaded but I'm worried about the board thing.
thank you for this video. it was nice

@renatomichetti

hello, I have the same guitar, her problem is the following, when I turn it on, it connects to the ps3 normally, but soon after it turns off, it does not stay connected, what could it be?

@pedrojosealvarado980

@TheFruitingChamber

Hey are the Xbox gh3 guitars good? Was gonna buy a heavily modded one from a welllnown modder and haven’t had a guitar in a decade and controller hurts my hands so much!

@billcramptonburger

My guitar hero 5 controller won’t return to center when strumming almost is too “weak” or something is this a switch issue or something else ?

@Gameup2332

Do I need a ardunio or something after I replace the switches I saw someone say that I have a wii les Paul

@WoodyHayes614

Where can I find replacement switches? Everything I’ve found is used. Will alps switches fit without modifications?

@Gameup2332

do i ahve to drill into the pcb

@leftygod9999

U wanna make me a guitar as well?
