Rock Band 3 Has Real Guitars

By: ign.comPosted On: 06/10/2010 1:23 P

Don't go thinking Rock Band 3 is just another music game sequel with a batch of new songs and little innovation. Developer Harmonix is turning up the volume for the third game in a big way.

As reported by USA Today, the third title will introduce a 25-key MIDI keyboard controller, and two new, stringed guitar controllers; one of which is a full-sized, fully functional Fender Squier Stratocaster. The other guitar controller is a Fender Mustang Pro from peripheral maker Mad Catz.

"It can tell where your fingers are based on technology in the neck and the bridge of the guitar. No buttons," Harmonix said. "While you're playing it, it feels exactly like playing a real guitar."

Rock Band 3 will also include a new expert "Pro" mode that will allow players to learn and develop their skills by replacing the colored-coded tabs with real music notes.
