So apparently somebody pulled the cord out of my foot pedal... Turns out it's just 2 wires in there, but I soldered them back in place and it still didn't work. So, does anyone here have or know of a place to get a working Foot Pedal for Guitar Hero? The Rock Band ones won't work, even though they seem identical. I've tried. Somebody please help, I really wanna play drums D:
(I've looked on ebay, they're 30+ dollars... rock band ones are like 10. grrrr.)
Also, if you'd like to trade something, I might have something cool.

Re: WTB GH Foot Pedal
I work in a place that repairs electronics all day, especially drum controllers. The wires that you are referring to are actually connected to a piezo. YOu can replace the piezo easily by opening the case and swapping it out. You can still obtain a piezo buzzer from Radio Shack or an old pair of headphones. It's simple and you'll $ave!

Re: WTB GH Foot Pedal
From headphones? 
I have an old pair of headphones that lost their foam padding, pretty much useless for wearing at this point. The one in the pedal seems a lot bigger than my headphones, though...

Re: WTB GH Foot Pedal
Size shouldnt matter. AS long as the element is intact.

Re: WTB GH Foot Pedal
Alright then, totally taking apart those headphones tomorrow.

Re: WTB GH Foot Pedal
I think we may have thrown out the headphones, but the original pedal still worked. For some reason the soldering last time didn't stick, but it's all good now. The wire's in pretty bad shape, though. I think this pedal's just really cheaply made.

Re: WTB GH Foot Pedal
Yes, they are. You should hit up Radio Shack and grab a piezo out of their parts bins for 1.99 and that you can just cut up.
