Squier Rock Band 3 Game Guitar Fender® introduces the world’s first electric guitar that is also an officially licensed Rock Band™ 3 video game controller. The Squier® by Fender® Stratocaster® Guitar and Controller is created for musicians and gamers alike and rocks both worlds.


Designed for the Rock Band™ 3 Pro mode, the controller lets users play the actual notes and chords of their favorite songs while racking up their scores. Its position-sensing fingerboard responds to the touch, turning gameplay into real musical performances. Gameplay requires the use of the Mad Catz® MIDI Pro Adapter (sold separately), compatible with Nintendo® Wii™, Microsoft® Xbox 360® and Sony PlayStation® 3.


The Squier by Fender Stratocaster Guitar and Controller is also a fully functioning electric guitar that can be plugged into a guitar amp and played on its own. It can also be used as a MIDI controller for sequencers and recording software.
