    Im not a fan of the Rock Band guitars and prefer Guitar Heroes modle, but bought this for the plug and play on pc… unfortunately for whatwver reason my PC recognizes the guitar, but fortnite doesn’t. There are hoops to jump through to get it to work, but if i knew id have to remap buttons and get a 3rd party program to make it work I would have just fot the PS4/5 version. Disappointed.

    Initially excited, ended up disappointed

    So while I was very excited to finally get my hands on one of these to properly learn plastic guitar, I noticed a lot of quality issues with this guitar that has since turned me off from using it and will now be returned. The blue button, only 3 songs in, decided to become very difficult to press, especially with the pinky. No other button has this issue getting stuck. The tilt sensor is also wildly inconsistent, having me tilt to a 90° angle on some songs but then only lifting it a hair for others. The PDP support website to try and submit a claim is a mess and doesn't even seem to exist for me. Overall, this left me horribly disappointed and I know trying to find a replacement to win the QC lottery will be a hassle with how short-lived the stock is.

    Don't bother if you're looking to use this for anything on PC. It does not work. You'll be required to download some sketchy third-party software that could brick the instrument. Don't bother buying this.

    Mine didn't work at all. I bought it for Fortnite PC and unfortunately didn't work I tried so much and just gave up I heard some people had issues some people it plugs and plays and some people have to tweak with it. But unfortunately I was a handful that just didn't work out right.

    Out of box failure to connect to dongle, when you go to the support page for this product it directs you to turtle beach support where the riffmaster is conveniently not on the list of products support. And the “easy setup qr code” conveniently takes you to the same page with no product information. Amost like they know theres a problem and its hidden away behind a wall. For $130 you would expect connectivity to not be a issue.
