I got one just opened it fresh out of the box. It's really unresponsive. What they dont tell you is that if you play any faster than what he's playing it's not going to keep up. This is with fresh batteries, and trying to power it with the usb also. The strings are incredibly random sometimes.. this is partially due to the fact that any vibration over the piece that says "YOU ROCK GUITAR" will cause the strings to sound. You can adjust sensitivity, but there is no real good setting.
Just saying that this is a midi guitar, so to all the haters and anyone interested in it, don't expect authentic tones or to play it as just a guitar. Some may think thats bad but its useful when trying to get other instruments and synths and midi sounds.
If you're wanting to get real guitar tones then get a real guitar.
Be able to play any timbre (instrument)? Through headphones (less string noise)? No pedals required (many sounds built in/or from other devices)? Lightweight plastic? ALWAYS in tune? Removable neck? $200 (less than some amps)? Play games? Fix any mistakes you make in Garageband (even change the instrument after you've recorded it)? Option of being powered by batteries by or USB?
This is revolutionary, I think it will go down in history with the invention of the piano (replacing the harpsichord).
That sucks cuz your missing the real feel of the strings pushing back against your fingers and you can't even Bend a string it's like taking the fun out of guitar but I guess gamer would like it

maybe sounds bad but its the closest thing to the fender squire to be used with rock band 3 pro mode as you cant get the fender guitar in the UK now discontinued or something ?
Uh...guys, the YouRock guitar obviously isn't a replacement for a real electric guitar. Have any of you actually used midi controllers for recording? There's nothing but keyboard interfaces...and I, and probably many other people, are decent guitar players but terrible piano players. This makes translating ideas onto a keyboard difficult.
The YouRock guitar is PERFECT for guys like me. Now I can use a guitar interface to control all my VST instruments and what not...it's so much more familiar.
@DrDrolomehet MIDI information is digital (MIDI - Musical Instrument Digital Interface), 0s and 1s, it's not like buying a real guitar where things like tone quality are considered. The YouRock will send the same 0s and 1s as a $3000 midi guitar, for a fraction of the price ($200). Plus, it's got all those groovy little features like the 65 instant-access alternate tunings, jam tracks, and built in guitar/synthesizer sounds that can be played without an amp.
It seems awesome. My friend plays the electric guitar (here on YouTube actually) and I think that he would enjoy watching this video. I'll show it to him.
@nty I'm definitely getting one through musicians fiend. I haven't played guitar in months: bad intonation, dull sounding strings, retuning my guitar every ten minutes etc; It's time consuming. I like the idea of being able to throw it in a back pack. It will definitely help me get through one more year of college.
@Wickalodeon Yeah, I'm getting one too in the next two months. By the way, I wrote that the strings last as much as a guitar, but I meant that it's supposed to last as much as the guitar.
in terms of a proper electric guitar,this doesnt seem up to scratch,like its made of plastic to be fair,but as a midi guitar it fukin kicks ass!! its like rob swire's 'ztar' ,it can do the exact same thing ,check it out /watch?v=WvthY6PoTIA&feature=related
@dilldonic this looks like the perfect way to learn guitar. especially with all the programs you can use on a comp or the rock band 3 stuff. so this is alot better than practicing on a real guitar. then when you learn this you can upgrade. its not being a poser.
@DJsnukumz how is it beyond stupidity? it is a midi guitar and it just looks like it would be able to work with RB3 i mean if im wrong its not really exaggerated, besides i heard somewhere that rock band announced this guitar to work on pro mode. thats how i got here.
@nirolevy96 You are only half right.If you buy it as a guitar replacement then its obviously fail...but if you buy it as a midi controller then its actually very useful escpecially for the guitarist who cant play keys.how many guitar like midi controllers you know at this price range?i dont believe that there is one yet...so in my opinion is very useful for controlling midi and vsts and wont break the bank.
Haha! You gotta laugh at all the idiots who think people that use this only use it for Guitar Hero or Rockband! They are no doubt the Rocker/Metalhead elitists you saw in High School!
I use this guitar, not for games, but for recording real music, with MIDI control of Synths or Guitar VSTs.
To put it in idiot terms: This guitar has MIDI, which means I can control guitar sounds on my computer and insert them into my songs! You still have to know how to play the real guitar and have skill!
@ForestDweller80 hey there Forestdweller, i was wondering if your you rock guitar is able to be used the same as a midi keyboard, aka total midi freedom? or is there limitations? Im interested in this as a cheap way of eliminating the need the need for a keyboardist in my band, i would plan on using it through a laptop with REAPER and a VSTI and then out through the PA. What do you think?
@Aryozad Hey Aryozad, yeah the You Rock Guitar functions just like a Midi keyboard, and it can do some stuff MIDI keyboards can't do, like strumming. It has total Midi freedom, just configure it to your DAW and to any VST you have. There are no limitation MIDI wise, it's polyphonic, touch sensitive, the ONLY thing is that since the strings arent connected to the frets, you cant do things like string bends, hammer ons, vibrato or harmonics like a real guitar, but it works good as key replacement.
2) Can you do string bends? All I saw was him use the whammy bar. I assume you can't do most types of harmonics either, but that's just a guess. I don't know how advanced the tech behind it is.
@SaiyanKirby The "strings" are just fretwire running down the neck. Not a bad solution - but no string bends, no vibrato, no harmonics. On the plus side, two-hand tapping is a no-brainer, including physically-impossible-on-a-real-guitar tapping tricks like multiple fingers tapping on the same "string". It's a real instrument, with advantages and limitations like any other instrument.
@ratelect While that would normally be a deal-breaker for me being that I already own a few real electric guitars, you really can't beat the price. I'll probably pick one of these up at some point in the future.
STOP USING THE DAMN WHAMMY BAR!!! WE KNOW IT'S THERE!!! but would you suggest getting this if you're in a hardcore metal band? i need a bass that never goes out of tune and we need a synth player so what do you think?
If I had money to just spend on anything, this would be just a convienience item, be able to play it at night when my family is sleeping, no amps, perfect for on the go. Although nothing beats the real thing, but its still cool.
"...if you're not sure how to do solos, you can go to you rock mode. For instance this song is in the key of F. If I play anything out of F, it'll mute it."
@MrAndryguitar first of all, hes promoting it, second, if you had the chance to buy it, why not? it can act as a electirc guitar, acoustic guitar and a guitar hero controller and you can adjust those little thing to it such as the volume and pre set tones. sorry but if your implying that something is wrong with this shit must be spewing out your mouth
The annoying spammers and trolls, I didn't like it, but I can live with. I've gotten used to it now.
The comments aren't as bad.
But THIS, is just too much to take! Every video I watch now has some annoying little bitch complaining about Youtube and how they're unfair!
I doubt u have a life, but I think I speak for a big part of the community when I say "Douchebag, shut the fuck up and shove your complaints up your ass."
For the price and certain purposes this is fine. Not a substitute for a real guitar, but useful as a synth guitar, scale and chord practice and some recording applications etc. What seems to be missing is the ability to bend strings. You don't want to use the whammy bar or some other dial everytime you want to bend a note or do vibrato. Defintely a place for this though.
There was a midi guitar controller with different strings for the left & right hands for sale in the mid 80's, called the synthaxe - but that cost $6000.
No lo leas no lo leas!!no leas esto!!si lo has leído copia y pega esto en 5 videos mas si no lo haces tu madre morirá en 3 dias por favor hacerme caso es una mald
I'm definitely considering one of these, not as a guitar, but rather as a guitar based synth controller. I've been playing guitar for close to 10 years and write a lot of music, but I've been kinda limited on synths because I can't play the keys and haven't taken the time to learn. There are some very good VSTi synths out there, and this might be just the thing I need to really use them.
They are ruining the guitar/music industry with this junk! My childhood has all but faded away now. Oh, and I wouldn't be caught dead playing that in-between my classes.
I play real guitar, but this looks cool... I don't think this kind of "instrument" are for people who are so lazy to play guitar, because the player have to know at least the basic chords to make it sound good.
Maybe the best use for this controller is as a MIDI device to record keyboard lines, because people who play the guitar maybe can't play keyboards.
Ga! Shit its alright but when he put that distortion on it it went shit! Just get a real guitar, this sounds like a electric piano getting strangled by Chuck Norris while he was roundhouse kicking it in the face!
frankly spoken, the guitar sounds sound worse than on my yamaha keyboard with general midi 1 - this is less than a guitar and less than a keyboard- folks, please learn to play REAL instruments...
i know theres alot of dissing on this product from real musicians but as far as tuning purposes i feel its a bigtime advantage. How often do people play and the guitar keeps going out of tune? I dont know about yall but to me eventually it becomes a pain in the ass. or just useful for quick tuning. Yea it dont look as cool as a regular guitar but for situations like tuning it helps. But thats just my opinion.
A real guitar will teach much more and sound more authentic but this is AWESOME as just a "controller" for a game. Plus it has MIDI and USB so you dont have to buy a super expensive real guitar or extra hardware..
Now hold on guys - there's a real USE to this thing... maybe it's not a replacement for a real guitar, but imagine using it to play the guitar SOUNDS in Garageband - and perhaps (?) play it into a notation program to transcribe TAB for your students or something. A VERY inexpensive alternative to a MIDI guitar interface for certain purposes. I want one.
@RealTomSawyer I totally agree. There is nothing more annoying than people who think they are musicians because they play a stupid computer game. Put the plastic down and buy a strat.
If this was able to respond to bend's on the actual strings it could be a semi-usable guitar midi controller. But as it stands i don't quite see the point. It's not a guitar, it's not a games controller and it's not a decent midi guitar either. What is it?
I myself know how to play a real guitar but i cant help to play around with this idk it might be fun to mess around with so yeah it to my opinion is not to be confused with a real one but it is always fun to mess around with something new
@dilldonic Nonsense. Anything that makes music makes music.
People called electric guitars "not real" too. Now they are canonical instruments. If you can be creative on it, it's a real instrument. I don't care if it's sold as a toy.
Did you know that John Cage wrote concerti for toy piano? People who are so self-certain that they make pronouncements about what's "real" and what's not "real" when it comes to art only manage to demonstrate their own shortcomings.
yes but with electric guitars you still are technically playing them, this makes playing "guitar" easier then it should be, sure its a real instrument, but this, and i'm sure others will agree with me, is no guitar
@BJMonkey You're talking over the heads of 95% of the people watching this video, words like "Keyboard" and "Midi" go right over their heads. Use words more like 'suck' and 'stupid' and you might be on their levels..........I know I'm buying one of these things.

@dilldonic You have to know how to play real guitar to know how to play is when you aren't doing rockband. How the fuck are the owners "posers"? He obviously are ready knows how to play guitar. You are fucking retarded.
@dilldonic hmmmm, if you don't know how to play guitar the only thing this thing is good for is a game controller....so your argument is kinda pointless....I use it on Garageband alot....and I actually have a guitar....

For the price and certain purposes this is fine. Not a substitute for a real guitar, but useful as a synth guitar, scale and chord practice and some recording applications etc. What seems to be missing is the ability to bend strings. You don't want to use the whammy bar or some other dial everytime you want to bend a note or do vibrato. Defintely a place for this though.

There was a midi guitar controller with different strings for the left & right hands for sale in the mid 80's, called the synthaxe - but that cost $6000.
Allan Holdsworth was a fan of it.

I'm definitely considering one of these, not as a guitar, but rather as a guitar based synth controller. I've been playing guitar for close to 10 years and write a lot of music, but I've been kinda limited on synths because I can't play the keys and haven't taken the time to learn. There are some very good VSTi synths out there, and this might be just the thing I need to really use them.

I play real guitar, but this looks cool... I don't think this kind of "instrument" are for people who are so lazy to play guitar, because the player have to know at least the basic chords to make it sound good.
Maybe the best use for this controller is as a MIDI device to record keyboard lines, because people who play the guitar maybe can't play keyboards.

i know theres alot of dissing on this product from real musicians but as far as tuning purposes i feel its a bigtime advantage. How often do people play and the guitar keeps going out of tune? I dont know about yall but to me eventually it becomes a pain in the ass. or just useful for quick tuning. Yea it dont look as cool as a regular guitar but for situations like tuning it helps. But thats just my opinion.

A real guitar will teach much more and sound more authentic but this is AWESOME as just a "controller" for a game. Plus it has MIDI and USB so you dont have to buy a super expensive real guitar or extra hardware..
CaptainArkamond 1 year ago
Now hold on guys - there's a real USE to this thing... maybe it's not a replacement for a real guitar, but imagine using it to play the guitar SOUNDS in Garageband - and perhaps (?) play it into a notation program to transcribe TAB for your students or something. A VERY inexpensive alternative to a MIDI guitar interface for certain purposes. I want one.

If this was able to respond to bend's on the actual strings it could be a semi-usable guitar midi controller. But as it stands i don't quite see the point. It's not a guitar, it's not a games controller and it's not a decent midi guitar either. What is it?

@dilldonic Nonsense. Anything that makes music makes music.
People called electric guitars "not real" too. Now they are canonical instruments. If you can be creative on it, it's a real instrument. I don't care if it's sold as a toy.
Did you know that John Cage wrote concerti for toy piano? People who are so self-certain that they make pronouncements about what's "real" and what's not "real" when it comes to art only manage to demonstrate their own shortcomings.

yes but with electric guitars you still are technically playing them, this makes playing "guitar" easier then it should be, sure its a real instrument, but this, and i'm sure others will agree with me, is no guitar

@P0peRatz0 Right. It's just a guitar shaped midi keyboard.

@BJMonkey You're talking over the heads of 95% of the people watching this video, words like "Keyboard" and "Midi" go right over their heads. Use words more like 'suck' and 'stupid' and you might be on their levels..........I know I'm buying one of these things.
