Rock Band 3 - Wireless Fender Stratocaster Guitar Controller for Wii - Blue Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This guitar started out very quiet compared to the Rock Band 2 predecessor, but after 2 weeks of heavy use and breaking it in - it sounds just like the old one.

In function - it is identical to the older Rock Band 2 Strat but the Wii version of this guitar is missing the sound effects slider (can't speak for the other consoles).

It comes with the USB dongle and is backward compatible with Rock Band 2 (and I'd assume RB1 as well but cannot verify).

All in all - a decent replacement guitar, but nothing groundbreaking. If you liked the Rock Band 2 Strat - you will like this one.

Playstation 2 Guitar Hero Wireless Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Well the guitar worked really well for the most part. Same size as the SG guitar that comes with the older games. Wireless is not very laggy and it has good range. Only complaint here is that the buttons seem to stick a bit more than the other guitar and they feel like they are made cheaper, but they worked good enough to use even on expert.

So it worked great for a month, and then one day it wouldn't connect to the receiver. I tried and tried and it would not connect. Tried everything I could think of including replacing batteries, resetting it, resetting the PS2, and even turning off my WiFi router and cordless phones. Nothing could make it connect, and in the rare case it did it would not hold the connection. I did not have a receipt so could not get a replacement on warranty so I decided to open it up and tinker with it a bit and here is where I found the problem. The wireless board is separate from the rest of the internal circuit board, and instead of being held on securely with a screw or such IT IS HELD ON SOLELY BY THE DATA PINS. I just barely pushed the wireless board with my finger and it easily bent back at a 45 degree angle from the other board. Most defiantly one of these pins had broken loose and caused the connection problems. This is very bad design. Since I have no soldering skills I had to throw it away.

If it wasn't for the bad design of the internals I would recommend this guitar. Until they fix the problems (maybe they have with the new style GH3 guitars) I would avoid these completely.

Logitech Xbox 360 Wireless Guitar Controller Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)That was my first thought upon unboxing Logitech's Xbox 360 Wireless Guitar Controller.The second thing I noted, as I lifted it out, was that it is very heavy.This is no cheap plastic toy!This is a solid, well-constructed, replica guitar.And the quality shows.

Inside the box, the guitar is well protected for shipping with bubble wrap and cardboard spacers.Of note is the fact that this is a one piece unit.This completely eliminates the connectivity issues between the neck and body, as sometimes seen in guitar controllers that come boxed as two pieces.The guitar measures 33.75 inches from tip to base, with a slightly larger body than my Guitar Hero World Tour guitar, which measures only 31.25 inches in length (see the photo I posted with this review).This extra length pushes the fret buttons up a little bit, but I did not find this to be an issue.I store my guitars on a stand, but if you use a guitar bag or case, be aware that it might not fit.Rounding out the included accessories are a user manual, a quality strap, some batteries to get you up and playing fast, and an adapter for older style Xbox 360 headsets.

IMPRESSIONS
The guitar itself is modeled after Guitar Hero guitars, with the raised fret buttons and the neck slider feature.Keep this in mind if you are someone who prefers the look of the Rock Band guitars, with their in-line fret buttons.The chrome detailing, including tuning pegs and bridge, and use of real screws in the white pick guard lends an authentic look, effectively disguising the Start (bridge) and Star Power buttons (pickups) while keeping them functional.There is even an authentic looking nut between the headstock and the neck. The Star Power button sits right under the ball of your hand, so it's easy to press down on while strumming (you can also still rock Star Power with a neck tilt).The strum bar is the best I have ever seen on a guitar controller.It has exactly the right tactile feel, and is responsive yet quiet.One of my fret buttons makes a bit of a clickety-clack when I hit it, but I am hoping this goes away as it wears in.Overall, this is a quiet guitar, allowing for more enjoyment of the music.

COMPATIBILITY
I have tested this guitar with the following Xbox 360 games that I own:

* Band Hero: Yes
* Guitar Hero Van Halen: Yes
* Guitar Hero 5: Yes
* Guitar Hero World Tour: Yes
* Guitar Hero III: Yes
* Guitar Hero II: Yes
* Rock Band The Beatles: Yes
* Rock Band 2: Yes
* Rock Band: Yes

CONCLUSION
This is a quality guitar controller that I would recommend to any serious gamer who wants to add authenticity to their music games.It is a joy to play.
