I have had this since XMAS and I have to say it is AWESOME. Forget all these people who are negative. Granted there is bound to be a bad unit here and there. I have had not 1 single issue with this BASS. I do not mind the wire which by the way is very long.
I now prefer to play bass over the guitar though I still mix it up a bit between the two. For Adults the longer neck makes it easier to play. My son (10 years old) said it was uncomfortable for him to play. He's better on drums anyway! ... Read More

In the end, I came away extremely disappointed, and will return the guitar as soon as possible. I will detail ... Read More

As someone who is a bit of a connoisseur of the video game and most notably I have a lot of Rock Band equipment, I was excited to pick this guitar up. After all, no one wanted to come over and play Bass on the regular Fender look-a-like that comes with Rock Band.
So because those in my house wanted to play bass on something that resembled a Bass guitar I went and got this rather than the Rock band 2 wireless guitar.
From the moment I removed it form the box I could tell it was not ... Read More
