Yes, I had The Beatles: Rock Band that came with wireless drum and guitar controllers, but that still left me short one guitar controller for the full band. Or even if we wanted to play with a pair of guitars (Harrison and Lennon) or a guitar and a bass (Harrison or Lennon with McCartney). So, wanted to maximize multiplayer options, I decided to buy a guitar controller for Rock Band. I figured, since I already had Beatles themed instruments, I might as well make sure that the next one matches. Of course, when I started looking, the limited edition controllers were out of stock everywhere, skyrocketing the prices up to more than 200%.
Eventually, they released more Rickenbacker 325's, but not Grestch Duo Jets, so I grabbed one of those. Comparing to pictures of actual Rickenbacker 325, it definitely does a good job of matching many of the details, even though it still looks more like a toy. Still, for a guitar controller, it's fairly classy, even if it's not as much of a premium product as the higher end guitar controllers and seems to be built fairly sturdily. We've played around on it a lot since we got it and we've never had a problem with it. A good piece of gear. 8/10.
