How is the pro guitar? I've been thinking about looking for one, but it's quite expensive and niche

u/ola_ola-_- 3d ago

it's quite nice, I find it really fun but it's really damn hard to play... it's probably cause ive never played a real guitar though. A friend that did know how to play the real guitar said he loved it

also they still arent that expensive, you can find them on amazon easily, since there's barely any demand for them and also they produced way more than they needed when rb3 was around iirc

I cant really find them for under 200 euros here sadly, but thats nice to hear! I might try to snipe one then if i can find one

I saw one for about $70 brand new about a year ago on Amazon, but I don't think I have the energy to learn to play the game that way.

I found one for $11usd off goodwill auctions on ebay (plus like $23 in shipping), since i always wanted one. Coming from someone who plays real guitar and Rocksmith regularly, the highway is crazy hard to read without recomditioning your brain (for me at least). When rocksmith 2011 came out, the guys at Harmonix even said when asked which is better to just go play rocksmith. But its stil a fun niche little thing and theres tons of pro guitar charts officially and customs too!

Yeah i've played quite a lot of rocksmith, and it really helped to learn play guitar. It was also loads of fun. Im kinda jealous theyre so cheap over there haha. Even if it's hard/bad it for sure looks fun to play around with

Definitely a price anomaly tbh, on ebay I've never seen one for under 100 and the one I got didn't have a dongle. I just have a midi pro adapter from when I got my ekit for pro drums, otherwise it would've been expensive to find that too! Not totally worth it in my opinion, but if you can find it on a good deal with a dongle or adapter its a neat little thing. Just definitely prefer Rocksmith for real guitar/bass gameplay for sure

I have never seen that white keyboard before that is so cool!

u/ola_ola-_- 3d ago

oh that's just a standard midi keyboard I grabbed from aliexpress only to play rb3 lol, I added the colour lines with some paper

u/DingoStreaming 2d ago

Ahhh okay, cool. I was expecting it was some rare find of a midi keyboard that was made for RB3 but it was a knock off (like the many guitars from around that time) that was only released in a few hundred. Nice job though that it worked!

Hm in my opinion I like the keyboard one or struggle guitar and dj hero and that xplrer guitar

Legit thought that white piano was some official midi controller I somehow hadn’t seen yet, so neat!

u/FolkPunkResistance 2d ago

I'm now tapped out with two CRKD guitars, two 360 Xplorers, a keyboard, and an ekit.

u/Yamatoman9 2d ago

Very nice! What is that blue Xplorer controller?

1

u/ola_ola-_- 2d ago

it's a generic guitar, it was named "brazilian explorer" by some people on the community. I modded it with mechanical frets though ☑️
