Guitar Hero Whammy Replacement base
This is a reasonable DIY project for repairing the broken Guitar Here Whammy bar.
A small 'tooth' breaks off and the whammy bar just 'flops around' as there is no longer any spring tension returning the whammy bar to 'neutral'.
This is an alternative to the 'rubber band' approach, which works well, albeit a bit hinkey of a fix.
If you'd prefer to do it right, consider this replacement part.
It's only available in white, but that's a small price to pay for a working whammy bar.
Plus, you might get to share some new words with your family and friends!
