Fans of Guitar Hero and Rock Band will love this (especially those of you wishing you could have a real guitar for those respective games)! Inspired Instruments Inc. is readying their new “You Rock Guitar” digital guitar video game controller which actually feels and plays like a real guitar. Instead of buttons and paddles, “You Rock Guitar” delivers frets and strings. Other cool features include:

  • Real-feel play with 100 guitar sounds – never needs tuning
  • USB connectivity for digital recording via a PC
  • MIDI functionality to emulate the sound of virtually any instrument for creating music via programs like Garage Band, Finale, Acid on PC or Mac
  • Can be played via amplifiers, headphones, iPods, and iPhones
  • Eliminates the wrong notes for beginners via “You Rock Mode”
  • GameFlex cartridge system enables digital guitar to be used for multiple video game consoles (Wii, PS, and Xbox)

You Rock Guitar will be available in February of 2010 for a suggested retail price of $179.95. The GameFlex cartridges will be available for around $20 dollars.
