    It works excellently works as it should. You know the price is steep, but I mean you gotta pay what you gotta pay. It’s good though.

    This guitar is great! We play rockband on Xbox and settle our disagreements with a quick jam session. It has made a lot of stressful times turn into challenging fun! Thanks best buy!

    Great controller comes with the cable but it’s not rechargeable. Has back paddles you can program. Very light good quality looks like it will last longer than usual controllers.

    Great controller. Love being able to play Muisc Festival in Fortnite and clone hero. Zero issues so far. Did have to download something to get it working with ch but otherwise perfect so far.

    Love this guitar!! It works amazing and compared to my older Rock Band guitars this guitar is buttery smooth. The frets feel really good as well. I do have a problem with the placement of the start and select buttons as they are awkwardly placed so activating star power is definitely not recommended that way. It’s not enough of a con to drop it down one star however. Recommend this purchase for sure!

    Features are good, but every PDP controller has a problem with a button or stick drift within a few months. This specific one is just over a month and the L3 does broke yesterday, making it difficult to play some games. Glad I purchased the replacement insurance which i suggest for anyone who buys this controller.

    Average for the price

    This controller is average at best. I bought this controller because my old one had broken buttons and stick drift. This one doesn't have any of those issues but the mute button towards the bottom requires you to press it twice to turn off and on which can be very difficult when in the middle of an intense scenario in you game. The thicker and tougher to the touch than my old controller. I would only recommend if you are more of a casual Xbox gamer.

    I enjoyed it but i really didnt use it as much as i thought i would. You use it for 2 months and then the hype is kinda over. Would definitely think hard on if spending $140 is worth it.

    I was looking for a controller that I could connect to my laptop, which carries an older version of Windows 8.1. This controller worked well although I did have to install a new driver.

    Works great, handles nicely, the buttons feel smooth and quiet. Strum is a little small but great. Very light weight and compact. Long battery life and easy to setup.

    This was a great buy super easy to set up and use and does exactly what I wanted it to do. I use this with my pc to play guitar hero and clone hero. I will say the price is a little more than I was comfortable spending but it’s hard to find a guitar controller to buy in person.

    I like it, it’s a pretty good guitar controller. I definitely think it’s a bit pricey though, but other than that everything arrived on time and the guitar controller worked perfectly.
