Parts trade anyone?

**Teancum** · Joined: 25 Jun 2007 Posts: 437

I'm just throwing this out there to see if anyone bites, but I recently got 4 pallets of Guitar Hero World Tour parts 100% free, as the wholesaler only took what was 100% working out of the box to repackage and sell. I am in the process of going through it and building working instruments for family and friends, and selling a few complete kits/guitars here locally to pay for Halo: Reach. However, I know I'm going to have some extras, so if anyone needs parts I'd be willing to trade. I will sell if I have to, but I always like trading better. If you're interested in something let me know.

As of right now it looks like I'll have the following once I'm done Frankenstiening guitars and drums together:

Tons of cymbal nuts, with the yellow/orange sleeves
Generic stickers + Xplorer stickers
A number of untested World Tour necks (which I will test if someone needs one)
PS3 drum "controller brains" (not the midi controller)
PS3 wireless drum receivers (lots of these)
Red, Blue and Green pads with wires attached
Drum midi assembly (both electronic boards)
Red, Blue and Green pads w/o wiring (untested)
The flip-up clips on either side of the blue pad (drums) to hold your drum sticks
Several drum pedals (stock) -have mostly Guitar Hero but a few RB1 and RB2 pedals
Misc drum stand parts. I probably won't have any complete stands left, but if you need a particular part I can probably dig and find one
Unopened guitar straps
Drum stick pairs (I have about 80 drum sticks total). I'm willing to throw those in with something else to make a trade fair
Wii "controller brains" (where you put in the Wiimote. Technically the Wiimote is the brain)
360 controller brains (possibly. I'm trying to build mostly 360 units, but can save one if someone'd like)
PS3 controller brains (also have wired brains from kiosk demo drum sets)
3 PS3 Les Paul that do not sync

***Just a note, all controller "brains" are interchangeable. So if you want to make your 360 drum set a Wii drum set, contact me and we can hook you up with a Wii "brain". It involves unscrewing three screws, unplugging the old brain, plugging the new one in, and screwing the screws back in. It's extremely simple.

I also might be willing to trade the following confirmed working and 100% complete stuff:

Multiple PS2 Kramer and World Tour guitars
Refurbed GHWT drums for 360/Wii (also tuned with Red Octane's app and a MIDI->USB cable to ensure good hits)
An ungodly amount of microphones, all working. Seriously, I probably have 20+ working mics (all Guitar Hero brand). They work on all platforms for the GH games and as a PC mic.

I'm not sure what I'd trade for, I don't want for much - but I figured maybe someone out there could use some of this stuff and I could package a group of things up in exchange for something. (USA shipping only) I guess if anyone has any original Xbox controllers I can always use those as we have several friends that have them since they're so cheap now. Other than that just any old game that you don't play, system doesn't matter. I'll find someone who'll want it. Oh, and Rock Band 1 drum silencing pads. I know some of ya'll make em, and a buddy just got RB1 for cheap, but those things are so doggone loud!

If nobody's interested it's no biggie, but again, I thought I'd throw it out there. Oh, and sorry if this is in the wrong spot - I may have overlooked a forum to trade on.

If you have any 360 Les Pauls, please DM (private message me) here or on twitter. I have a few LP's from different systems I can trade/pay for, as well as a PS2/3 RB1 drum brain and some RB Strat Parts...I mainly need a bottom half of a 360 Les Paul (has to turn on, fully functional strumming and whammy is a must, secure wire connections essential as well. Don't worry about the neck.)

I'm picking up two more pallets tomorrow, so I'll let you know what I find as far as 360 LP gear. Right now I only have two LPs in my garage, both PS3, with one neck missing. One's GH3, one Aerosmith. I'd be really interested in Strat parts, particularly if any are RB2 (especially with the sunburst paintjob). Oh, I updated the first post with some more parts, as well as a list of stuff I have that's complete and working in case you're interested. I'll know more about what's going to clutter my garage once I get those pallets home, but that's a good start.

Very cool. I'll definitely keep you in mind if I need any parts. Out of curiosity, where did you get these parts from? I'd love to have my own source of parts (especially RB2 guitar and drum parts).

I don't play any games outside of Guitar Hero so I wouldnt have much to trade for but if you were to sell me either a 360 rock band 2 drum set or a 360 world tour drum set what would be the price on either one?

So we're in the process of testing what came in the last two pallets. My friend is doing most of the testing, and I'm running inventory. Dunno how that happened, but hey, I'm the one who knows how the guts of these things work inside and out. Anyways, we've got some great stuff.

There's no pressure, but if anyone needs something from there let me know. I'm going to start selling off the working stuff locally, so please let me know what you want and if possible list an offer of XX dollars (your offer should include any shipping costs). Again, I'm not out to rip anyone off, so feel free to offer what you think is fair, even if I think its low. The worst I can say is no.

I also have a 360 World Tour game sleeve and manual. The game was damaged beyond repair, but the manual and sleeve look brand new.

If you have a 360 controller brain I would greatly appreciate it. Mine crapped out recently.

Just a quick important note for this thread.

Do not discuss the terms of any transaction here including trades or other compensation for the parts, especially about money. Any transactions should be arranged by Private Messages.

I am leaving this thread active because I feel that random parts are very hard to come by and this can be helpful for a lot of people. Thanks again to Teancum for the offer.

Okay, add 1 PS3 Les Paul and 2 Wii Rock Band guitars that do not sync (one Wii guitar is a rebuild *missing buttons on neck* and so now has a Rock Band 2 neck, the other is a Rock Band 2 guitar). The Les Paul looks like its never ever been played. I've also got a box of parts for the Strats. Dirty pickguards (but not cracked), two broken 360 wired controllers (don't know the issue), one PS3 wireless guitar (some wires cut) - looks like a V4 layout, PS3 sync dongle.

Also I'm thinking of parting out World Tour stuff in "repair kits".

2 Red pads (1 w/wire, 1 w/o)
2 Blue pads (1 w/wire, 1 w/o)
2 Green pads (1 w/wire, 1 w/o)
1 Yellow cymbal wire (wire only)
1 Orange cymbal wire (wire only)
1 replacement drumstick clip (screws in from the back)
1 replacement controller brain (based on what you need - PS2/PS3, 360 or Wii) --TESTED AND CONFIRMED WORKING

I don't know, is that appealing to anyone? It helps me get things out of the garage faster, and hopefully gives folks what they'd need to infinitely repair their World Tour drums. I don't want to go nuts throwing out prices, so let's just say a few bucks plus whatever it would cost to ship to you ---OR--- preferably we would trade. PC parts, console parts/games, you name it I'm probably interested. In that case no money is exchanged, each person pays their own shipping. As a sign of good faith I will ship first on my first transaction with a given users. Anyone think this is a good idea?

Sounds good to me. If you'd like to discuss a possible transaction feel free to PM me.
