User Reviews
3 Stars As others have stated
I struggled between giving this a two or three star review. I decided on the three star, because this guitar functions as a Rock Band guitar much better than the wired version that came with the bundle did. It’s flaw is that the tilt function does not work. I am on a mission to find the perfect Rock Band/Guitar Hero controller. I own both games, and I actually only bought Guitar Hero to have an extra controller for playing Rock Band with friends and family. Like previous reviewers stated, all of the guitars have their problems, but I was hoping that this wireless version had been tested enough to work correctly. I still prefer the Guitar Hero Les Paul, but at least the Rock Band wireless will not impede your playing. You just have to get used to going for that select button to get into overdrive.
1 Star No Overdrive
This Rock Band wireless guitar is yet another disappointment from Harmonix. It is pretty much useless. It will not go into Overdrive except if you push the Start button. There are more missed hits on this strum bar than on the wired RB guitar, which is remarkable considering the wired RB guitar (a replacement to the original) is guaranteed to take 5% off your performance.
This is unfortunate because I like the overall feel of the controller vs. the Guitar Hero models. But that’s three RB guitars that are unplayable, while we have controllers from Guitar Hero 2 and 3 (wired and wireless) that have performed flawlessly.
There is an obvious problem with the design, and quality control may make things worse. Guitar Hero has proven that these controllers can work. I have flight stick and driving controllers that work just fine after taking huge beatings over several years. After all this time, it’s beyond belief that these problems continue with Rock Band guitars.
2 Stars Bad Tilt Sensor
I should have known better. Many other people have already commented on how poor the tilt sensor works in these things. Mine is a perfect example of this – I have never been able to trigger “star power” by tilting my wireless controller. Aside from that, the controller works well. Very frustrating for this aging wannabe rocker.
5 Stars Works Perfectly
We have had no problems with this guitar. It works just as well as the wired one that came with the game, including the power up feature by tipping the guitar.
5 Stars Rock Band Wireless Guitar
It`s very funny to play with this guitar. So far I have no problems with it.
