I revived my childhood with this guitar. I bought it to use it on my pc, so after a couple minutes setting this up i was playing all the guitar hero and rock band games with no problem. Buttons feel great, The battery life is long enough to play all day. I definitely recommend to buy this guitar.

I havent played rockband in years so i grabbed this to get me back into the game. It has been awesome. It feels like a classic Rock Band Guitar. The buttons are crisp, but not loud. The strum bar also feels like a classic Rock Band guitar. A soft strum feeling, unlike a guitar hero guitar. It charges via USB-C and the battery lasts super long. I also never have any connection issues with it. It connects wirelessly via plug in usb with the connection being the size of a thumb drive. Its also super helpful that the guitar folds in half for storage. If you’re on the fence about this, get it.

Best purchase for the ps5! Very difficult to find a guitar to play with rock band on the ps5 and glad this guitar is compatible. Had to purchase 2 so we can enjoy family game nights. Super easy to set up, simple plug and play with the dongle that is provided.

Get with a V3 adapter from RetroCultMods

Works good with a V3 adapter, played clone hero and guitar hero 3 just fine. Doesn't work too good with fortnite festival but theres only like 8 songs to play on there so it ain't even worth playing it. It's pricy but if you don't wanna buy a used guitar hero controller then it's a great option.

This guitar is great for Fortnite festival. The tilt can be a bit finicky but just make sure you're holding it straight and it will work. I have so much fun with this guitar!

I played guitar hero growing up. Lately we’ve been playing Fornite’s Main Stage and it’s just as fun but you miss having the guitar. When we bought this I thought it would be like riding a bike but it’s definitely a challenge to get back into. Once you get the hang of it though it’s amazing. The only reason i give it 4 stars is that its difficult to engage the Overdrive feature. The button is kind of hard to reach especially when you’re in the middle of a song and it feels like i have to be tilting the guitar really aggressively if i want it to activate by motion. Both ways seem to throw me off in the middle of a song.

Happy that someone came out with a quality product to revive this super fun genre that I'm now sharing with my kids. Works well on my PS5, paired up easily, and works perfectly with Rock Band 4.
I might need to label the hard to read "options" buttons since I press the wrong one every time as they are black on black and hard to read in low light. Other than that, love it.

Brings back old memories of playing guitar hero and rock band on xbox 360 and PlayStation 2 and 3. These new guitars are sooo nice , they feel great and seem like they will last for a long time.

I've been wanting to jump back to Rockband for a while and finally did by buying the game digitally and this guitar.
After looking around at -used- original guitars at ridiculous prices, I decided to get this one instead and it turned out to be the correct decision. It feels as good or better than the originals did and so far it's working great.
Definitely recommended!

I’ve played guitar hero in the past with other guitars, but this guitars out beats them by a longshot. The buttons feel nice. The battery life is unmatched 30 hours! Is absolutely crazy. The only con is the strap is not good id recommend buying a better one.

Excellent guitar (Rockband Style)

Excellent build quality. Definitely "Rock Band" like, but found a bit of a middle ground with Guitar Hero guitars. Used for Clone Hero on PC, works perfect except Star Power, had to assign to a button. This may be just a PS4/5 device shortcoming, not sure about the XBOX one.
This sucker is QUIET. Had my son put on headphones and play this guitar and honestly I fell asleep.
The finger-print prone glossy finish is a bit annoying but it does look sleek. Love the ability to be able to condense the guitar down via the fold down fret bar.
And can't say enough about the rechargeable battery.. that is a LIFE saver and money saver too.... no more double A batteries.

This controller is such a blast to use! Works perfectly fine. I will say, however, that this controller comes with a USB-A cable to plug it into the PS5. If you have a PS5 slim, you may need to buy a usb dock or a USB-C to USB-A converter to use it, as it has limited ports.

So fun to play. This product is good for what I bought it for. Feels a little light and not the best quality but it works. I like using it, buttons are smooth.
