    Some helpful tips for those with a Wii World Tour guitar (got mine today and ran into 2 common problems seen in the comments). I believe these same tips will apply to a GH5/Band Hero Wii guitar. I wanted to put this comment to the forefront as it seems a lot of people were having these issues. 1) It's possible either your Start button or Starpower/Select button will not work. Either-or will not register whatsoever in CH if you try to change its binding. Happened to me, and I found that all I had to do was swap my Ground wire to the center terminal on the strum boards section for these buttons. In other words, follow all the wires original paths, not the labels on the board (I believe RCM mentioned he was going to swap the Ground terminal - maybe the boards are being printed with an older schematic but updated electronics.) 2) At least for the WT guitar, I found my strumbar was either sticking or double strumming after directly installed the strum board. My fix was using the 4 washers included in the kit as spacers beneath each screw. It makes the strum bar much looser than it normally is and allows the navy switches enough give to depress and return the bar to center. Some might find the bar is *too* loose, and i've been reading that doing the overstrum-fixing tape mod can add back some tightness. The springs included with the WT strumbar are simply too weak to recenter the bar - maybe installing stronger springs can mitigate this issue without adding the washers but I haven't tested this. 3) Use RCM's configurator seen in his pinned comment. It makes setting the board up for use insanely easy as it automatically finds the pin bindings by loading a preset. You won't see Start or Starpower/Select options in his configurator, but don't let that deter you. They automatically bind and will work in-game if you've installed everything correctly.

    @Rauzwel9 ай бұрын

    Just completed your Kramer solderless kit and it works great! No body modifications nor extra wires or splicers were needed in my case. As a quick note for those modding a Kramer, there are two possible Start/Select/Ground connections: the one shown in the video on the same side as the USB C connection, and another on the bottom (ST/SEL/GRD if I remember correctly). The bottom one is at the perfect length for the wires and has matching text to what's on the guitar's board. Another tip, while your guitar is open, is to pop out the little wireless switch toggle on the side of the guitar to create the smallest hole for your cable. Use flush cutters to trim and round off any sharp protrusions on the inner side of the tab, then poke the USB C end through it before assembling. Sorry if this is painfully obvious or if you've already mentioned it, I've never modded anything like this before.

    @@retrocultmods I'm curious if you're open to selling standalone fret boards with more haptic switches similar to MX Speed Silvers. I'd even special order them from you if you're open to it. Just personal taste, everything works as intended, but having grown up with an Xplorer guitar, the red switches are a little too sensitive and lack that haptic feedback I'm used to from the membranes. The guitar is more than playable, I just find myself ironically getting a little tripped up playing faster songs. The guitar actually just tipped over and fell on its back and that was enough to make some of the LEDs light up lmao. Either way, thank you for keeping these 15yo+ controllers alive!

    I bought and installed this in my Wii Les Paul and oh my god it plays like an absolute dream now. I was having a couple of issues with my blue and orange frets randomly flickering when being held down and I'm so glad I decided to take the plunge and mod it because it's like 10x better than it ever was before. The only remaining issue I have is that the whammy bar doesn't work, but it was already acting funky before I installed the kit, so I imagine that the potentiometer or whatever it uses decided it was time to kick the bucket. Kinda sucks but it's still worth every cent I spent on the kit, and installation was an absolute breeze besides a few PEBKAC issues. Thanks not only for making the kit, but also making one for dopes like me who couldn't solder a wire to the broad side of a barn.

    Hi! I got one kit and it works amazing except for one thing, the select button to activate the OD in PS5 RB4. Is it supposed to work too or not really? Start button works fine, I'm using a ps3 les paul and matched the labels on the boards with the wires. Additional question, can I wire the guitar pad into the board too? I'd love to navigate with it 😅

    got to the configuration step, and everything seems to be working fine besides the start button. when i try to bind it nothing happens, like the button isn't connected. i've tried rewiring the start / select wires, but have had no luck. this is for a Wii world tour solderless btw.

    Ive having an issue sith my whammy not registering. I have it all plugged in but it isnt being counted as anything. Occasionally when click to add the whammy it'll act like a key was pressed, but i cant repeat it intentionally and it won't work in game. I was thinking maybe it was an issue with the whammy because the original cable fell off and i had to put it back on, but i tested it on a whammy from another guitar which still has thr original wire connections and it does nothing. Not having a whammy isnt the end of the world but id like to have it. Any suggestions would be great.
