The game Guitar Hero has been getting a lot of press as the next big rhythm game since Dance Dance Revolution. With Guitar Hero you are able to simulate playing a guitar, and to accompany this came one of the best ideas for a game controller, a replica of a Gibson SG.
Now the good people from The Ant Commandos (TAC for short), have graced us with an alternative to the Gibson. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the "Shredder" which is the the only alternative to the one made by the game publisher Red Octane. Recently when I reviewed Guitar Hero it was done using the Shredder.
Specifications:
Product dimension (L" x W" x H") : 29" X 10.5" X 2.5"
The ONLY alternative guitar controller on the market.
Advanced design with better button placement, so no more accidentally pausing the games!
Shorter design to reduce fatigue in long play sessions.
Fully compatible with Guitar Hero software for PS2
Configurable so that players can create custom looks with the combinations of cool rock 'n' roll decals (included).
Five multi colored fret buttons
Durable Strum bar
Real working whammy bar
Quote from the TAC website:
"The Shredder Guitar Controller
The only alternative guitar controller available for the Guitar Hero game for PlayStation 2, the Shredder Guitar Controller allows Guitar Hero players to upgrade to a better controller with a host of design improvements, including a more sensitive whammy bar and a reconfigured button cluster, which prevents players from accidentally pausing the game. Its sleek body design is reminiscent of the famous single coil guitar models played by artists like Jimi Hendrix, Aerosmith and the Rolling Stones, and it ships with a collection of stylish decals so players can transform their controllers into unique works of rock 'n' roll art.
