Xbox 360 Rockband 2 Guitars + Drums Instock @Future Shop

[knievel]

Just a heads up for anyone who has pre-ordered a Rockband 2 bundle.
If you're like me you'll want a second guitar.

Future Shop is showing online stock(and some in-store) of the new guitar and drum set.

Have a feeling these will be gone fast..

Fully wireless, the Rock Band 2 guitar lets players vicariously jam out as some of the best guitarists, bassists, drummers and singers of all time.

Rock Band 2 features a track list that puts all other music games to shame with more than 100 on-disc and free downloadable tracks from some of the most hallowed bands of the rock pantheon.

Note: This is a description for the wireless guitar only. It does not include the game Rock Band 2.

FYI I don't know about the drums but I saw the guitars at London Drugs (Regina) last weekend.

I'd definitely advise people to pick up a GHIII Les Paul or the New Guitar Hero guitar that's coming out shortly, because the Rock Band guitars are a big step down... Rock Band rules all, but the guitars are kind of weak.

I have all the guitars for 360 and I'd say Xplorer > RB2 Strat > Les Paul > RB1 strat


the extra buttons are also amazing for solos

What's the difference between the RB2 guitar from the first one? From my experience, the first one was a major pile of crap. Instead of coming out with a much needed clicky strum bar, they made the frets sticky instead. Completely baffling. Makes it nearly unplayable.

the strum bar isn't mushy anymore(it doesn't click but that's a good thing imo)
it has an auto calibration sensor for calibrating lag with your tv as well

Waiting for the GHWT guitar myself...

yeah and it's $20 at BBV (for the Les Paul). quite hard to pass that up

Does the RB2 Strat works in GH2 or GH3? I heard the RB1 didn't but nothing about the new one.

WHAT WHAT WHAT! Must buy!

I have 4 360 guitars in my house (and 2 PS2 ones) and none of them work 100% except for the Rock Band one which I refuse to touch...

If I can get a new Les Paul for $20...

Still I think the new GHWT one looks good and apparently plays well (I'm waiting for the drums too)...
