I just got my EXPRESS Guitar in the mail, correct platform (PS3), and very fast shipping/processing. I was impressed.

I turned it on and started to mess around in the menus of the game, only to find that pressing "up" on the strumbar is the same thing as holding it down. So essentially, tapping 'up' once will start scrolling the song list up, as if you were holding the strumbar up.

It also doesn't work in-game at all. Only downstrum.

Seriously Harmonix? What the f*ck. EA can expect an angry call from me tomorrow.


Oh yeah, and the whammy bar 'clicked' and the fret buttons are complete **** compared to the old ones. I then proceeded to swap out the neck and tweak the whammy spring. This is really pissing me off.

Similar experience for me with the Xbox360 replacement guitar I received today.

Either a no-strum or a Multi-strum on the down strum. Up strum works OK.

EA / HMX, you need to get your act together on this. It would be better to let people know the issue is not yet fixed and that a permanent solution is in the works so we don't get our hopes up while we wait for our replacements.

Customer services is THE solution.
