I bought a Fender Strat.

My RB3 Squier will just collect dust now. I don't think the frets are repairable/replaceable. I don't know for sure if the detection is worse. I haven't played RB3 in a...

I've been using the RB Squier with Rocksmith. It works OK, but I'm getting some bad fret wear on mine. Here's a close up of the fourth fret on the low E string...

Thanks RA-elx. I edited my post (#2183) to include these.

If anyone's interested, I made a list of the Authentic Tones that go with each song:

On Disk
(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction (Chord) - Acoustic Radio
(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction (Single Note) -...

OK, I've put a lot of hours into this game over the last two weeks, and beyond the obvious bugs that everyone is experiencing, I have a few minor gripes:

1. I was really enjoying the "Journey" at...

As you continue on the "Journey" it takes a lot more to qualify for an event. I'm at around 6.5M RSP and I needed over 90,000 to qualify a song for an event. I think it actually dynamically assigns...

According to Wikipedia there are 6 songs that you can unlock when you get a double encore.

"Ricochet" by Brian Adam McCune
"Boss" by Chris Lee
"Space Ostrich" by Disonaur
"Jules" by Seth...

Anyone else notice all the Rocksmith advertising (at least online)? Ubisoft is really pushing this game. Kinda makes HMX's pathetic marketing of Pro Guitar look really bad. And there seems to be lots...

I bought RS on Friday and I'm using the RB Squier because it's the only guitar I own. I've had some note detection issues too. On 'Ducks' it would always register one fret down from the one I was...

- Bump -

I thought I'd let you know that I started my own blog to document my Pro Guitar learning experience. It's called 30 Days to Learn Guitar.

I don't expect it to gain a huge following or...

OK, I can see that. I'm still trying to make the jump to Medium, so I haven't had the "notes are too close together" issue yet.

So then, how will I know when to use HOPOs? Are they charted...

I think that's a HOPO. It never said so anywhere (even in the HOPO tutorial), but that's the way I interpret it. Can anyone else confirm this?

Inventory update for Steve's Music in Ottawa -- I just bought a guitar and their last PS3 MPA. They still had a couple of Wii and XBOX MPAs on the shelf. They only have one guitar left now (the floor...

Sorry if there's already a thread somewhere. I didn't find anything in Search.

I've read people complaining about the note track being shorter in RB3 than it was in RB2. I decided to take the...

Yup, also on ions and PS3. When I try to scroll through the songlist using the pads, the game thinks I'm hitting the Square button and rating the song. It's a pain. I only scroll with the d-pad...

I was hoping that the in-game switch would actually chart the open hi-hats separate from the blue ride. Oh well. Opportunity missed. Thanks for the info. I'm planning to get a Kickbox/Hi-hat for...

I've been playing RB3 for a few hours now, and here are the bugs I've encountered:
- My PS3 locked up while loading a song to play. Had to hard reboot the PS3.
- I was navigating through the song...

I've actually been thinking about this. Someone on here said that playing real guitar isn't like playing plastic guitar, in that you can sightread an Expert RB chart and muddle through it, but on...

I've always used a projector with RB1 & RB2. Works great! I'm using an HD Epson with HDMI off of the PS3. It feels weird when I switch between games (like GH, RB, TB:RB) because the calibration is...

I got my first gold star on Guitar. It was Kids in America. And HOPOs just suddenly clicked for me. I get it now! My fingers can actually do that!

I'm mostly a plastic drummer and I've got 115...
