Strum bar = garbage!

[PIG_20]

The strum bar on the Rock Band guitar is an unresponsive piece of garbage!

You "will" miss notes when having to strum up and down at fast paces.

At first I thought it was just the guitar that was packaged but after I received my replacement, it seems to be more of an overall design flaw.

I did comparisons with my Guitar Hero guitar and there is a huge difference in the overall response.

I just feel sorry for the PS3 owners that don't have the option of using their Guitar Hero guitar.

Yea the guitars for rockband suck pretty bad, I use the GHII controller and havent had any problems, just whoever is on bass gets stuck with the crappy rockband controller

Is this the newer 4th gen magnetic one? Or the original guitar? The original guitar was pretty bad. This new 4th gen one I just got from RMA works very well. I actually prefer this one to my Guitar Hero ones now. If you're still covered under warranty, I'd RMA it.

how can you tell if you have a new magnetic one?

If you lean down and look at it closely, do your fillings hurt?
