life has improved June 10, 2010 William R. Holdsworth this guitar is the best thing that ever happened to me. since receiving it in the mail promptly i have quit my job and gained 15 lbs due to the awesomeness of this product. i no longer want to do anything else aside from being a guitar hero...i mean rock band guitarist. my band and i have conquered many set lists and we do not plan on stopping. i find myself waking up sweating at night with my one hand flicking an imaginary switch on my stomach and my left arm pressing those precious fret buttons i crave. do i like this product? what do you think?
PS3 Rock Band WIreless Guitar May 16, 2010 GrooveRider (Costa Mesa, CA USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am very happy with this product. I received it quickly & in great condition.
Well Built, cool looking, genuine guitar May 11, 2010 John Ciriello (Dover, MA) Took some getting used to after using my Frontman guitars the guitar is fine. Built well, and way more realistic than the guitar hero guitars. Like any PS3 guitar or 3rd party anything you will have to use up a USB spot to use the guitar as it requires a dongle to connect it (since the ps3 is bluetooth and the guitars are not). I can't say I every use the lower buttons for solos because frankly its not worth the practice of keeping your fingers really close together and if you have big enough hands its actually more of a hassle. One truly negative thing I will say about the guitar is still annoying is the clicking, the strum bar is silent yet the buttons are anything but. They loudly click everytime you press them. So you better have the volume turned up!
In the end, if you can get over the clicking, this guitar is fine. I don't have a drum set so the two usb ports on the ps3 are enough for my two guitars however for a full "band" it may be an issue that requires a usb hub. The battery life on the guitar is great, and it is very responsive. I bought my guitar from here for somewhere around 25 dollars, which is way below list price for a new guitar so I really can't complain!
Good secondary guitar. April 1, 2010 M. Ross (Cornelius, NC USA) I bought this as a second guitar for Rock Band 2. Just looking at this next to the Rock Band 2 guitar you don't notice much of difference other than color. However, the RB2 guitar is more easily playable due to a slicker fret board. Also the receiver for this guitar does not have a USB in like the RB2 receiver so if you have a PS3 slim you will need a USB hub to play all 4 instruments at once.
Overall, great buy for a second guitar.
Works ok, still has the same problems as original model March 25, 2010 D. D. Ziegler (Rifle, CO United States) We received the guitar quickly, but out of the box there was something rattling around inside - like something had broken inside. Hooked it up and the light didn't light, but it still works. Seems a little more sluggish than the original, but you can calibrate it. Biggest problem after a month - still having a problem going to "power boost" mode. The accelerometer only works some of the time... Still the strumming is pretty good and the fret buttons easy to manipulate overall. Not bad.
