Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not worth the money
I read the prior reviews and decided to order the frontman guitar instead of the traditional rock band guitar because I thought I would eventually buy guitar hero as well as rock band. However, this guitar is much worse than the rock band guitar. I didn't have a problem linking it to my PS3 as many people had indicated but have several complaints. First of all, in order to get the guitar to recognize overdrive, you have to raise the guitar at least 5-10 times before it recognizes that you have ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Didn't work
I was not able to get the foot peddle and guitar to sync. So this was of no use. I sent it back for a new one and have not received it yet. Maybe I will have better luck with the second one.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best guitar for GH3
This past weekend I recently purchased this guitar in place of my GH3 Les Paul. Prior to owning a PS3 I owned an Xbox 360 along with GH3. The Gibson Les Paul wireless controller for the Xbox 360 worked flawlessly so I expected the PS3 version to respond in the same fashion. Not exactly, songs I knew I could 5 star on expert diffuctly would result in 3 star efforts. Frustrated, I turned to the internet to see if anyone else shared my dilema. Low and behold, most PS3 GH3 owners shared my plight. I followed ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good guitar for PS3
I've had my Frontman guitar for a couple weeks now. So far I am very happy with my purchase. One thing worth mentioning is that they do not necessarily send the color shown in the picture. (Black with white pick guard is shown in pic, they sent me the white version). This doesn't bother me at all, but it could with some picky people so I thought I would mention it.

The guitar works great with both GH3 and RB on PS3. I have spent hours playing both games with the Frontman and have really had ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - this one broken, too (UPDATED: WORKS, the instructions are wrong)
Same as some other reviewers here: Could NEVER get it to sync. Sending it back; obviously there are a bunch of bad ones here that don't make me feel good about Nyko :(

UPDATED:
So, I got it to work, and it works great. How? Well, turns out the instruction manual with it is useless. While it clearly states to get both components into the 'fast blinking' stage, that does NOT connect the devices.
Once both are blinking fast, THEN hit the button one more time on the guitar. They will ... Read More
