I decided to buy this for the PC clone of Guitar Hero called Frets On Fire. I read on a few forums this has a USB connection and will work with windows XP and above. Had to find drivers on the website before it worked for my xp system though. Works great. I just have to get used to spreading my fingers out to where they need to be. I'm not or never was a guitar player so it's going to take some adjusting. Also the whammy bar doesn't work with FOF, but that doesn't matter anyway. -= PROS =- Works on PC with USB Works with FOF Feels sturdy. I think it will last. -= CONS =- Whammy bar doesn't work with FOF. It is however recognized by windows. Buttons are spread a little too far apart for my hand. I'll adjust. White... I would definitely recommend buying this if you like Guitar Hero or FOF.Read full review
As far as plastic musical instruments go, this particular model has been somewhat clunky and unreliable for me. I have reasons that I stick with it, primarily it's lower price in comparison with the wireless LP models, and that fact that it's powered USB instead of AA batteries. I recently purchased my 3rd Xplorer guitar. The previous two both had mysterious button failure (both the green button) that I cannot repair. Pros: Cheaper to replace than the Wireless model No batteries means less money spent (or less time recharging) No signal interference or missed notes that the wireless sometimes suffers Cons: Shorter lifespan than wireless models Cord keeps you tethered to your console, preventing long-distance jamming Whammy bar is often very loose and dangles around Overall, this is an average instrument for GH. The Les Paul from GH3 (after you fix the neck) seems much more reliable, but goes for $20-30 more. They're both just plastic guitars, but this one just seems to break more often than the wireless and RB instruments. Average!Read full review
The Unit is a great addition to my xbox collection, the unit looks and works great, it came packaged superbly, but it did lack one key component, the breakaway cable was not included in the package, but with the use of another guitar breakaway cable i tested the unit and it works without any problems, i recommend this seller and this unit for anyone looking to expand thier xbox gear collection
Well, as you all know there is no official GH3 controller for PC. This controller works perfectly, windows recognizes it with no problems, its basically plug and play. Gives a whole new experience while playing GH3, no where near playing with a keyboard. If you're a GH3 fan, and you're playing on PC, this guitar is the way to go. It's compatible with both Gh3 : Legends of rock , and GH3 : Aerosmith and I hope it will be compatible with GH4 as well. Oh yea, you can play frets on fire too with it.
It seems to be a little more comfortable then the original guitar that came with world tour. the only thing is the annoying line bump on the yellow button... I guess it's supposed to help you to find the buttons better but it kinda hurts after awhile of use. A razor to cut it off would probably help, but my wrist doesn't hurt like when i use the other guitar so its good...
