Rock Band guitar modified for stompbox overdrive

Were you ever annoyed by the tilt activation controls for the guitar overdrive in Rock Band? One gamer apparently did, and actually decided to do something about it, too. He basically took the thing apart and re-wired his mighty axe to read the overdrive activation through an effects pedal.

Ultimately, this mod gives more control to a player as it won't accidentally trigger off the overdrive. This is especially interesting for those restless rockers out there that really want to move and grove while playing. Think you're good enough to give this a try? Read up on the instructions here.
