GH Controller

Is it decked out in stickers? Is it left the way you got it? Or is it "modified to enhance preformance" because you rock out too hard and too much?

Post pictures of your guitar, I'll post mine up too, because it just looks way, too, awesome.

(when I get a picture).

As of right now, my guitar's pretty much the same as it was when I bought it, with the exception of a few stickers here and there. Once I get my disc fixed I plan on makin the controller better. But until then I really have no need for it.

I voted for option 2, on the basis of future intent

No stickers or anything, plain Jane, but at some point I intend to do an RF mod for it, cause I'm a hardcore anti-wire type (play other PS games with a Madcatz 2.4GHz wireless and I can't imagine ever going to back to a regular PS/2 Ultrashock). I'll probably do the strum bar velcro mod as well at the same time when I have it open to do that.

Unfortunately, I can't find any of the "you can plug anything with a PS connector into it and make it wireless" type RF controllers locally (they make it a lot easier, cause they take the controller output wires as an input). So I'm trying to decide whether to buy something off the net or eBay or something, or get another Madcatz for rippin' open, and mess around with wiring the buttons into it, instead of the PS connector outputs from the other way, which sounds... vaguely annoying. Hence, my procrastination. I'll get to it one day though.

mine has a couple stickers on it, my nautical star, which all my real guitars have too (except one bass, its too sexy to sticker) and my "JC" which is my inspiration for wanting to do well in GH (I may change the J to another C, to inspire me to do well to make a girl happy

)

ive also got the strap clip in the back of the guitar like a real SG, it makes the guitar that little bit higher and the neck end can slip down when you play with a top on, but its good for when you want to play lefty flip, its the same height

I checked "Stickered" but actually I have painted on a skull. I also have put some pins on the strap

I picked "Modified to enhance performance" even though mine's not modified to enhance anything ... except maybe appearance.

I've painted mine gloss red, painted the pickguard and all of the "hardware" matte black, the fretboard is black, back of the fretboard red and on the back of the guitar, I finally found a use for that stencil of the "Scary Guy" that came in my Metallica Live Shit Binge & Purge box set - I stenciled him on the back ...

I'm at work right now, I'll take a picture of it tonight so you guys can see ... it looks purdy.

IronEddie, that sounds pretty kickass. Can't wait to see it.

I kinda figured it'd have to be a few good coats in order to make it work right. I was thinking about giving my guitar the Eddie Van Halen paint job, sine I figured it'd look awesome on the guitar. I just wasn't sure if the paint would've stuck to the glossy surface of the plastic or not.

It'd be nice if you could give me the brand you used for this though. I don't wanna assume I know what I'm doing and screw it up.

(Oh, and I don't have to worry about a few days without Guitar Hero. My game disc's been broken for a few months now, so a few more days without gaming isn't gonna kill me, since I still can't play it anyways.)

Appearance: I have "42" as a 12th fret marker, and a triangle next to the start button so my dyslexic ass can remember which one is which. Stickers were pilfered from the sheet that came with my DS/Mario Kart bundle.

Performance: I got a couple of rubber bands looped around the back peg and whammy bar... otherwise my whammy won't whammy very whammily.

mine is just straight up defaulted out theying yang. but mine is pretty worn down, namely the strum bar. that little white protective coat is gone and it's been used so heavily that the clicking sound drowns out all the notes if i try to make videos and i'm not willing (yet) to open it up and fix it since it's still in awesome shape for play.
