Xbox 360 Rock Band 2 Standalone Guitar

 (25 customer reviews)

I've owned all 3 versions of the RB guitar, first the wired, then the RB1 wireless, and now this one. I have to say that each one has been a significant upgrade.

I'll just briefly note the pluses from the RB2 wireless over the RB1 wireless in case you're on the fence about upgrading:

1) Silent frets - No longer do I hear my fingers releasing off the frets over the music, like I frequently did in RB1. Sometimes the loud frets would throw me off my rhythm if I was concentrating on upcoming notes, but I don't have to worry about that anymore.

2) Sturdier strummer - The strum bar is the same style as the RB1 model, except I don't feel like I'm going to break the darn thing off every time I strum it. While I never broke the old model, it just felt flimsier. It's still infinitely better than the noisy clicker strum bar that every GH guitar has.

3) More responsive Overdrive - Sometimes it seemed like my RB1 wireless wouldn't immediately respond...Read more

The new wireless guitar for Rock Band 2 actually WORKS!! There were so many issues with the wireless they created for RB 1 I was sceptical to purchase this one but I did and it works great, no issues what so ever.

I like it. It looks great and pushing the buttons doesn't create has much noise. The strum bar is the weak point of the guitar but still not that bad. Wireless is a big plus.
