Hope for the Wii guitar

I discovered a fix for the faulty Wii Guitar Hero World Tour guitar that I was sold: this article about fixing a broken strum bar (site has another about tightening it) mentions that the problem (extra strums when not touching the bar) could also be an oversensitive touch strip, which can be disabled in the options. This seems to fix the problem; Honey wasn't using the touch strip anyway, although it seems a limitation that might be a problem in future (also I read something about not being able to disable it in group play). It seems the strip can be sensitive to light and shadow (and hence movement). Still doesn't mean I wasn't sold a faulty guitar, with no way to get it repaired under warranty (no box or manual).
