How to: Play Guitar Hero with a Real Guitar

Follow us on Twitter!! http://twitter.com/householdhacker

Guitar Hero is a great game but something about it is lacking realism. We have found a way to use a real guitar during Guitar Hero play.

You will need:

1. Xbox 360 Controller
2. 4 Wires cut at 2-3 feet each
3. Soldering Iron (or electrical tape)
4. Real Guitar

    this cant work…the strumming in de controller is instant, there is no extra button for strumming.. you just press the button of the note and it strums automaticly. The electric-current circle is in the button itself, not in a other place of some sort.

    It’s not about added benefit. It’s about experimenting with electronics for fun.

    if it works its a great way to learn to play guitar!

  22. bombhead2 Says:

    not really, effectively you can just use one hand, all this is doing is teaching people to strum specific strings, guitars are a bit more complicated than that. you got to think about the specific notes and chords that you can play as well, along with the strumming.

  23. Mehemid Says:
