Hi! today I'm gonna teach you how I made my own guitar killswitch out of a dead NES controller, I know there are tons of instructables on how to wire up a killswitch out there but this one is muuuuuuuuch neater =D no seriously, if you're a guitar playing geek you're gonna love it... So let's get started :)

Objects needed:
1.Guitar
2.Nes controller
3.Small wires

Tools Needed:
1. Small philips head screwdriver
2.Soldering Iron and solder
3.gloves, if you're the kind of person who often forgets that touching a soldering iron is not that fun...

NOTE: the button that will kill the sound when the whole thong is done will be the a button, you can change that if you like, but the a button is my personnal favorite...

Step 1: Open up the controller

First remove the small screws from the back of the NES controller.
IMPORTANT NOTE: KEEP THE SCERWS IN A PLACE YOU WON'T LOSE THEM, you're going to need them later :)
