And so it begins. The custom Desktop Arcade Rockband Guitars.
Dateline: Friday - I went to FOUR different Gamestops (fuck their website's product locator, it stinks on ice) until I finally found ONE that had Rockband Wireless guitars (they just released them this week). We made a stop at Home Depot to get some nice metallic spray paint for it, I got home, and disassembled it. Sarah taped it off and started spraying it.
Dateline: Saturday - Back out to more Gamesstops, they only have the friggin PS3 wireless guitars! (I want more). The paint cured, so we started topcoating it.
Dateline: Sunday - Well, I was at Castle Point Anime Convention all day, and recorded the Podcast until 1 AM last night, so I didn't get much time to attend to it until we got home at 10 PM. The topcoat cured on it, so I got to work on reassembling the controller.
And it was good.
What do you guys think of how it looks? It was inspired by this custom Strat I found earlier in the week.
This is my "More than a Feeling" rock scream face. She slipped away. She slipped awaaaaaay. AhhhhhhhhhhwaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY!!!!
This is a public entry, but please try to keep this under your hats. I'm making more in the next few days along with finishing more IIDX controllers, so I'd like to try to keep it on the semi-DL until I get more built up. If anyone wants to buy the Stratophire or has a color request, please comment.
