I have read that many of the demo stations guitars strum bars are broken on the downstroke. They also feel EXTREMELY flimsy, like i was holding it and could almost twist it 45 degrees. Please tell me the guitars are somewhat revamped. Thanks.

Demo gear is pre-production. Retail gear should be more robust.

I just visited Harmonix a few days ago and I have played on the controllers that will be shipping out with the retail bundle. These are solid, and the strum bars work like a dream.

These were nothing like the ones I used on the Tour and at my local Best Buy. Trust me, in a few days you'll know what I'm talking about. :cool:

Feigned... did the final controllers feel heavier? (can you answer that?)

To be perfectly honest, I don't really remember how heavy it was. Then again I've never really had a problem with the weight of the controllers, so it's not something that would have stood out to me.

That's cool. I'm sort of the same way, but they felt a little light to me (which I don't care either way), but I heard HMX interviews how they were heavier, so I was curious.
