You can plug a real keyboards and drums if they have MIDI out. You'll need this thing:



...which is a MIDI adapter made by Mad Catz.

Still no price for the Fender.... hmmm $199?

Video showing the new features of RB3, including the Mad Catz guitar and Fender Squier Strat simultaneous play with the game and with amp.


Nice, you can import songs from RB1, RB2, Lego RB and Green Day RB into RB3, plus the DLCs.

Nice insights into the gameplay...

USD279.99 + another USD29.99 for the Mad Catz MIDI adapter. Just under 1k mark without shipping and tax.

US doesn't have the bundle as well. The keyboard and game are separate SKUs.

I believe you can. All you need is the code at the back of the manual in RB2.

Fooooh.... Pro Guitar is hard.....

First impression of the Mad Catz Mustang


Size comparison with the Mad Catz Fender Telecaster and 360 controller.

1. It's light, not much heavier than the Telecaster but more so compared to the Hofner Bass from Beatles:RB.

2. The fretboard buttons are all the same size, no problems if you're moving from the 5-button RB/GH guitars to it. Those familiar with a guitar will take some time getting used to it.

3. Strumming strings are nylon I believe, very sensitive. They give 2 Medium Fender picks.

4. The Fretboard module is modular and removable, hopefully anyone would be able to buy a replacement fretboard in the future if its busted.

IMHO, the Mustang is great for anyone who has no real guitar experience and wanting to move up from Standard to Pro Guitar mode. Those who have guitar playing experience might want to wait for the Fender RB3 Squier Strat instead. Because the strings and buttons are all the same size, finger placement takes a bit of training to get used to since you can't differentiate between strings based on feel alone.

Fender Squier now available for Pre-orders if you happen to be in US.

On another note, some Legacy DLCs getting Pro-Guitar/Pro-Bass upgrades tomorrow.

* Boston – More Than A Feeling
* Creedence Clearwater Revival – Bad Moon Rising
* Creedence Clearwater Revival – Fortunate Son (Original Version)

* Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble – Pride and Joy

Total? Should under USD500.

Should reach here next week.

It's here. Unfortunately the MIDI adapter shipment got delayed to tomorrow so can't test it just yet.


The box.


Clear caution on the box for XBOX users. Apparently the in-store demo units in Best Buy has working navigation feature for their XBOX 360s.


How it's packed. That's it besides a few spacers. No foam support or bubble wrap. If you intend to ship this from US I would suggest paying extra and get your shipping agent to pack the box with extra bubble wrap or foam.


The guitar.


It's an Indonesian strat.


Size comparison. From left : Mad Catz Fender Telecaster, Mad Catz Fender Mustang, and the Squier Stratocaster.

Plus shipping to Malaysia, around USD430.

Weight wise feel about the same as my previous Squier.
