2 out of 5 stars Plays well, breaks fast   October 30, 2008
Bought 2 for my son. They were fine for playing, but broke quickly. Replaced one through Amazon, which also lasted only a short while.


5 out of 5 stars I love this guitar.   September 4, 2008

This company makes a similar series of wireless guitars for the PS2 and it's the best controller I have. It has a good feel on the fret buttons, strum bar and whammy bar!

The Rock Band 1.05 patch now allows this guitar to work with the game. I've tried it and it works!

Now, I did have some trouble with buy used controllers but if you take care of it, it WILL do the job.



5 out of 5 stars PS3 Axe - Love it!   August 29, 2008
I love this guitar controller...I think it looks even sharper than the one that came with the game. It plays great.


1 out of 5 stars Sad Just Very Sad   May 31, 2008

This guitar is a piece of crap. It sucks it does not work correctly and is cheaply made. It turned off my PS3 several times or paused the game or brought up the systems menu. It does not work correctly at all. I got it for Guitar Hero 3 and the thing must be defective or just poorly made. I know it doesn't work with Rock Band because it says so. This is just a very sad piece of merchandise. [...].

I picked this up originaly thinking it would work with rock band...of course it did not. Not sure why a 3rd party would not make a guitar that would satisfy the dispute between rock band and guitar hero but they didn't. As for the game play with the guitar (GH3) very cheap feeling. The strum bar has a defined reaction when used, meaning it clicks and does give a reflexive response like the rock band guitar. Now some who play GH3 will be used to that, personally, I don't get it, you dont get that feel of strumming a guitar, very boolean. The button were fine but I felt they were too small and very distant for human hands. Sure guitar frets are far apart, but this is a game, not a training tool. Therefore I would say go get a genuine real mccoy GH3 backup, plus there will be less fighting with the kids on who gets the "cool" guitar, not saying which one I like better. Two stars only because it does actually work with GH3.
