I chose to map our new buttons into the control board for the small buttons at the base of the guitar. This will give the new buttons the added ability of automatic hammer-ons and pull-offs during solo mode.

Look at the wires, and figure out how they are mapped.
Start with the Ground, then with red, green, yellow, and so on.

In this case, the ground has a SQUARE contact on the board, and all the buttons had round contacts.

Attached is my wiring diagram. It's worth mentioning that I have a Launch Day Rock Band controller. The wiring may be different for different versions.
Remember, you can always re solder your errors, but if you check your work, you won't need to.
