    I grew up playing Rock Band on Xbox and the Wii. I bought two of these so my girlfriend and I had a video game we could play together, and we both love these controllers! They work just like the original Rock Band Guitars, and they even fold in half backwards which is convenient for storage. They also come with guitar straps which is great!

    I find the guitar pretty good, no issues for me. Played Clone Hero and Fortnite Festival and yea its pretty fun playing with the guitar instead of a keyboard, so I would say its an awesome item to add to your collection in your room.

    Good quality guitar controller for newer Xbox/PC

    This guitar feels good in your hands, a nice size, and the buttons are sturdy enough for many hours of shredding. There are no complaints for this controller. It works on PC and newer Xboxes. It does not work for Xbox 360 Rock Band 2 sadly which is what I hoped for when I bought it. That's not their fault though, it never claimed to on the box.

    Good Guitar Controller - Just Not for Phase Shift

    As described by the manufacturer, it does work "plug-and-play" on Windows. Just know that programs such as Phase Shift do not support newer controller tech such as this.

    Love the Riffmaster but it isn't perfect it has its flaws like the strum bar being to small in my opinion.

    I will say. I have a few old guitar hero guitars from the past along with rockband guitars. I like the build, it is solid, all buttons are nicely placed. The analogue stick on its own is a nice addition. I have the PS strat, Les Paul, the Xbox wired xplorer, which are all honestly phenomenal (clicky strum). But to have a no latency wireless guitar with great battery life, I think this is a perfect substitute if you don’t want an OLD USED piece of equipment. Easy setup for clone hero as well!

    You were excited to see that somebody had made a guitar again so we could play our older games and have fun. It was easy to use and connected very quickly it's not a bad price for what you're getting it's much less than a complicated control you normally pay $150 for her so I think the price is fair the build quality is durable and it folds in half for Easy Storage if you don't have a guitar stand.

    Worth it for the Casual Player

    3 months in and I'd say I'm overall very happy with the guitar, it's not perfect though. Overdrive/star power can be a pain to activate, they should have included a physical button near the palm resting area. And I just never was the biggest fan of the rock and style fret buttons and the silent strum bar, I REALLY miss that GH click. But just to casually get back into it after a lot of years, I'd definitely recommend over trying to deal with old models, adapters and such. If you really want to "try hard", look into custom Etsy builds.

    RIFFMASTER Wireless Guitar

    The RIFFMASTER Wireless Guitar definitely feels on the cheap side, the plastic and buttons don’t have the same solid quality I was hoping for. That said, for the price it’s doable if you just want a budget option to get by. In my case, I ended up returning it and went with the original Guitar Hero controller instead. The difference in build and playability is huge! If you’re serious about the game, I’d recommend spending a little extra on the original version.
