    I like it alot. It beats paying a ton more for the used official brand. However, you really do have to press down on the keys. Otherwise, its great!

    This is your choice to go if you couldn't find a guitar hero or rockband set. Is besacally plug and play. I used on my Xbox Series X on rockband 4 and work perfectly fine, and i used as well on fortnite on my pc. Same for Clone Hero, so dont think about getting one

    Great quality guitar! Works better than the OG guitar hero ones. I’ve been having a blast with it in Fortnite Festival. Have not tried Rockband yet, but I’m sure it’ll work fine in it. I’ve used it a lot, and never had to charge the thing. Not even sure how, there’s prob a usb c port somewhere on it but I’ll figure it out. Battery life is great!

    The Riffmaster is our bridge to play Gutiar Hero or Clone Hero in the modern day. Buttons are responsive and feel a bit like a mix between the old GH and Rockband controllers. Not fully protruded but not fully in the neck.

    This Guitar Hero guitar works great overall! The buttons are responsive, the strum bar feels solid, and it’s a lot of fun to play with. It’s not quite perfect — sometimes the whammy bar feels a little stiff — but for the price, it’s definitely worth it. Would recommend to anyone wanting to jam out!

    I am 26 years old and have been playing rhythm games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band since my childhood. I was thrilled to hear about Fortnite Festival and a new guitar controller being made. This guitar controller truly feels like a next-gen guitar controller. The fret buttons feel great and I appreciate the USB-C charging port. Also, a USB to USB-C charging cable is included in the box. The guitar controller works flawlessly with Rock Band 4. I am so happy I was able to get one before they sold out.

    It’s a great product. Easy to start learning, I would consider it a good Beginner guitar controller. Although, It is difficult to get the Tilt sensor to actually sense the tilt, aside from that this guitar is great.

    PDP Riffmaster Review

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This was my first time buying this type of product, so I was unaware of how it should perform compared and how it should feel when using this game controller. Overall, it was fine to use to get used to, but I soon had gotten a second one, and realized the first one was detective due to the buttons being insanely hard to press in. Unfortunately I think this was just an issue with the model, so I gave it 3 out of 5 stars anyway. I ended up purchasing a third one that I have been using for over a month with no problems :) I would recommend this product if you plan on playing games that use the Guitar!
