NES Paul is a god photo

NES Paul is rockin' out with his c*ck out with his DIY NES guitar. For the courageous (and musically gifted) this god of a man posted a quasi-DIY guide here, complete with extra pictues. How much would you pay for one of these babies? This god of a man sacrificed his NES, the best system evar, to make a freakin' awesome guitar. Unlike the Halo fanboy who made the rocket launcher, this awesome project is actually functional.

How much would you guys pay to have one of these? More than a PS3 on ebay? I doubt it, with auctions like this out there. I challenge you Destructoid readers, do what NES Paul did, expect with a Guitar Hero guitar, for those of us who suck at guitar. Like me.

(Thanks to reader namelessted for the tip.)

I've actually been thinking about doing this with an SNES, but it looks like it works a lot better using the NES instead. Maybe over the winter break I'll get around to making one. I have a spare NES, it wouldn't hurt.
Too bad the guy didn't give a step-by-step, that'd been helpful. Looks like I'll have to improvise and hope for the best.

Damnit, he gutted it. I was hoping he'd go hacker and make a crazy system that allows you to play music directly through the Ricoh 2A03 chip, and actually play a NES as if it were a guitar, and have all the sound done by the Ricoh 2A03. That would be an interesting project to do, though.
