5 out of 5 stars I works for me   July 17, 2008
It's nice to have a guitar that works with both. I only had a small problem syncing it as the directions are not correct. you have to HOLD down the button and they don't state that in the directions. Other than that to works great with Guitar Hero and very well with Rock Band. There is delay with the switch for Rock Band's selector, but it's not that bad of a problem.


5 out of 5 stars Great product   July 1, 2008
Great product. only problem is that it took a little while to get the guitar to sync with the receiver the first use, but other than that it pairs every time now.


5 out of 5 stars The Greatest PS3 Guitar!!!!!   June 28, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

First off, I didn't get this on Amazon but it's such a great item i had to write a review for others to see. This is THE BEST guitar I've used/found hands down!! After trying a few other products that shouldn't even be sold I decided to go and buy the PS3 NYKO Frontman. This is the one I first wanted to get and I kick myself for not getting it sooner!! The fret buttons are very comfortable and super responsive, no dropped notes like other guitars. The strum bar is so smooth and its awesome for fast notes! And the whammy bar is the BEST I've ever seen! Whoever says this guitar feels cheap must have been using another one because this exceeds even the Gibson LP in every way. I will admit though, I was nervous at first because it had some trouble linking but once it did it worked perfect. It's so nice to finialy be able to play Guitar Hero III and actually enjoy it! Trust me, I'm an Expert GH player and now that I'm able to 100% songs I would recommend this to anyone. It took me a LONG time to finialy find the perfect guitar as I was skeptical about every one I looked at after trying so many junk ones. Let me save you all a lot of time, buy the NYKO Frontman and you will not be dissapointed! I'm gonna go back to GameStop and buy another as soon as I can.


1 out of 5 stars stinks!   June 24, 2008
it works for about two days then goes on the fritz. never works again. waste of money. someone needs to make one that is for real!!


1 out of 5 stars Frustration...   June 19, 2008
We spent hours trying to get this to connect to our PS3 with no luck. After more frustrating hours on the phone with Nyko's tech support, we were told to ship it back to Amazon due to a faulty pedal. Lo and behold - we can't get a replacement any longer!!!

I know several people have worked through the initial connection issues, but we had no such luck. Buy at your own risk - looks like we're going to be stuck buying two separate guitars to properly jam. :(
