Rock Band 3 Fender Guitar

[TheUnk]

So who is getting this real guitar soon for Rock Band? And who is actually going to be able to use it considering the MIDI adapter is out of stock everywhere?

Fail.

I was thinking of buying one, but won't probably do it until I move to a new place later this month.
I just bought the ps3 MIDI adapter from bestbuy.com... after applying a gift certificate and shipping it came to $26.48.

Edit: apparently it is no longer available for shipping.

Nope, you fail.

Many people i know are getting it, of course, they're into music.

IMHO, it will probably allow many people to learn to play the actual guitar or further develop their skills, which, P.s., a 4 button guitar can't do.

I'm referring to the fact that it's so very hard to get a required accessory to use it. Which I thought was pretty clear in the op.

I preordered the guitar and should get it Friday.

Your writing ability is horrendous.

Are there any reviews for the real guitar setup? Thinking of buying one to learn guitar, but worried that it isn't implemented well, or doesn't help beginners or something.

It won't be much different from the other pro guitar setup already out. Just instead of buttons it'll be strings. From what I see the notation is a little hard to read on the fly, so you'll have to get used to that. Also nothing about the game teaches proper fretting or picking technique which can hurt in the long run if you're serious about playing guitar.

The biggest issue I see with it is that most people who are used to playing rock band are used to being able to pick up the instrument and reacting as you go on a new song. With this, even on the easier difficulties you will have to practice a LOT and most likely slow the song down to see the notation, and then learn the fretting on the guitar. There will be a lot of repeating the same section over and over again until you get it. In other words, this is a mode you play with patience and probably by yourself more often than not. It doesn't seem to be good when you're jumping from song to song with friends. You pretty much have to know the song ahead of time as it's quite difficult to figure out full speed on your first go.

RBA has a review.
