5.0 out of 5 stars For Multiplayer Guitar Hero Fun, March 31, 2008

Seeing as there is no alternative product, other than maybe a few cheaper knock-off guitars, this is your best way to go if you want to have some multiplayer Guitar Hero fun on your Wii.

It's the exact same guitar as the one packaged with the Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock Bundle.

If you are debating on saving a few dollars to get a "knockoff version" such as the Nyko one, don't bother. I think you would be much better off investing a few more dollars to get the trustworthy guitar that was made by the company that is partnered with the Guitar Hero software developers.

Unfortunately, the price point is a bit on the expensive side, but it is cheaper here than anywhere else I've seen it.

So, if you are looking to play Guitar Hero on your Wii with a 2nd player guitar, look no further. This is the product we have all been awaiting for the past 5 months since Guitar Hero III's release back in November 2007. Have fun rocking out!

Great Quality. You do need a Wii remote for it though. You will need a Wii Remote for each "instrument" controller when you play Guitar Hero on Wii. Recommended if you need an extra guitar!

It works with the following:

Guitar Hero III / Aerosmith
Guitar Hero World Tour / Smash Hits / Metallica
Guitar Hero 5 / Band Hero
Rock Band 2

5.0 out of 5 stars Guitar Hero Guitar=Amazing, March 30, 2008

A Kid's Review

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Wii Les Paul Wireless Guitar (Video Game)

Guitar Hero 3 is the latest installment in the Guitar Hero series, and it's back on a new console- Nintendo's Wii. In this guitar you put your Wii Remote inside the Guitar Hero Guitar. You can always take the neck off, to save space. There are 5 "fret" buttons: The green, the red, the yellow, the blue, and the orange. There is a control stick, like the one on the Nunchuk, and you can use it to navigate around the Wii Menu. And under that is the strum bar. You move it up or down when a note comes at you, and at the same time press a fret button, and it makes a sound. Next to that is the + and - buttons. You use these to pause the game. Under these is the Whammy bar, which is rotatable. And it comes with a strap, so you don't drop it when you're playing. Yes, if you need another guitar for your Wii, don't hesitate to buy this. It will not be a waste of your money.
