Date: 2007-12-16 Get it I've had this guitar over a year and i've also been through a lot of psychlone guitars and this one still works great. i'd say the only cheap guitar thats worth it. Psychlone guitars like to make them look cool but they all have a broken wammy bar or stummer. Very good value. I highly recommend it.
Date: 2007-11-27 Best Way to Play! I got this guitar when my friend who had the second guitar we played with moved away. Since I was the only one around with the games, and single player just isn't as fun with a group of people, I had to get something - I'm really glad I went wireless.
Not being inhibited by the cord is really nice; you can get further away from the TV and REALLY rock out without worrying about pulling the Playstation 2 off wherever it is sitting, and you don't have to worry about contending with a strap AND a cord when passing the controller to a friend.
The batteries that came with the guitar are still running great, and I've definitely used it (Rock the 80s and Guitar Hero III have both come out since I purchased this, so you know there has been some play time on it!)
I have no complaints about this whatsoever. It's been one of the best purchases I've made for my PS2.
Date: 2007-11-26 Works great... until it breaks. Well the guitar worked really well for the most part. Same size as the SG guitar that comes with the older games. Wireless is not very laggy and it has good range. Only complaint here is that the buttons seem to stick a bit more than the other guitar and they feel like they are made cheaper, but they worked good enough to use even on expert.
So it worked great for a month, and then one day it wouldn't connect to the receiver. I tried and tried and it would not connect. Tried everything I could think of including replacing batteries, resetting it, resetting the PS2, and even turning off my WiFi router and cordless phones. Nothing could make it connect, and in the rare case it did it would not hold the connection. I did not have a receipt so could not get a replacement on warranty so I decided to open it up and tinker with it a bit and here is where I found the problem. The wireless board is separate from the rest of the internal circuit board, and instead of being held on securely with a screw or such IT IS HELD ON SOLELY BY THE DATA PINS. I just barely pushed the wireless board with my finger and it easily bent back at a 45 degree angle from the other board. Most defiantly one of these pins had broken loose and caused the connection problems. This is very bad design. Since I have no soldering skills I had to throw it away.
If it wasn't for the bad design of the internals I would recommend this guitar. Until they fix the problems (maybe they have with the new style GH3 guitars) I would avoid these completely.
