  • This makes playing guitar being so normal and not special... I hate it.

  • i have a fender squire and thats the rock band plastic one too

  • it should let you plug a real guitar into it then i would totally use it then

  • YOU HAVE to develop calluses...if you really wanna learn how to play the guitar, pain makes all the difference while learning,no pain...no gain.

  • Can you use your own guitar on this?

  • @MadDogArchie64Gamer no, you need the rockband branded guitar

  • Yeah, this is just stupid. This won't teach anyone real guitar. At all.

  • umm, does anyone realizes that it takes about a month to learn your first song in a guitar, regardless if you're playing Rock Band, Rocksmith or taking lessons??

  • rocksmith absolutely destroys rockband pro. its just like rockband...but with any real electric guitar...

  • @Stahio Ahh, but Rocksmith relies 100% on sound, so if someone says "I want to learn guitar!" and either buys a $50 guitar or uses the shitty guitar they got for their birthday, will be disappointed when there song tells them they aren't hitting the right notes because their guitar fell out of tune, they will be discouraged and give up. Not to mention, although changing difficulty sounds good, you will never be able to master difficulty levels until you reach the top level.

  • @halflife213 I have rocksmith and I've been playing it with my cheap FirstAct guitar. I've never experienced any problems regarding tuning... or any problems at all, for that matter.

  • What's the first song?

  • WILL IT EVER COME TO CROATIA?!

  • when will pro guitar be out in uk

  • OMG save me from Calluses and tuning my Guitar. These guys make it sound like its a major issue preventing you from playing the real thing... Your 99% there just buy a real guitar and learn the REAL THING. Who knows you may even join a REAL BAND

  • whats the name of the song ????

  • Rated T for Tits

  • you gotta love technology.... :)

  • can u fail a song on pro guitar

  • yah, ive tried this, the notes are completely different than the actual songs on guitar.

  • nah, guitar hero and rockband are for plastic instruments, if i wanted real guitar, ide take mine and go get lessons!!!

  • rocksmith is going to be better

  • @DragonSlayer263 More realistic? Yes, definately. More fun? incredibly hard to say, and this will be the determining factor for 95% of the playerbase.

  • @delomorganano well what would you play? a real guitar or a toy guitar that's trying to hard to be real? i rest my case

  • @DragonSlayer263 You don't actually have a point..

  • @delomorganano Objection!

  • @DragonSlayer263 Rocksmith isn't a game, bud.

  • Intense trailer !

    Thanks for sharing 

  • It's actually like playing a real guitar, no joke.

  • holy crap... that sounds awesome! I play real guitar, and i'm looking forward to improve on it, this may be just the right tool for me!

  • Simulated...simulated...simula­ted...they say that about twenty times within the first 2 minutes..lol

  • This is fun but really hard at times.

  • Ok, now, the next step is to plug a real guitar and they gives you the real tabs, AND YOU PLAY REAL MUSIC! :O

  • @kemdek incase you didnt see in the fucking video it has a real guitar also it gives out real tabs for pro mode And clearly playing real music :)

  • -Plays Rock Band 3 on plastic guitar.-

    Random idiot: "Good, now play it on a real guitar."

    Me: What do you see here? IN YOUR FACE CUNTS!!!

  • i think the sons are not that great even though some of it are... they should do mainstream songs... that's just what i think

  • I don't like my sexy guitar being used for a video game...

  • Cant we one of those guitars but a LEFTY one????....

  • Comment removed

  • there is a special guitar that has real strings and played as a ream guitar with a amp

  • if the just made a guitar hero or rockband game in which you could plug real guitar and play that way...that would be cool

  • can u use it as a real guitar?

  • @BCONN96 it's plastic

  • @mrgenius4 but can you use it as a real guitar

  • @BCONN96 yeah but it isn't..

  • @BCONN96 no you can't dummy

  • I'd much prefer the tough calluses forming on my fingers to pressing buttons any day. :)

  • Uhm i guess guitar hero is much easier en fun than this 0_o

  • fuck your authorized guitar controller, i want to play with own freakin guitar you greedy bastards!

  • FUCK THE MUSTANG I WANT A FLYING V!!!!

  • If you have enough imagination, Guitar Pro will do just fine. + you get to play with a real guitar.

  • Wow, I learned something from this vid. So could you actually use the pro guitar as a MIDI controller (like the RB3 keyboard/keytar)?

    That would make it easier for people who only compose in MIDI to write guitar parts w/o using a keyboard controller! Or even allow people that do tracks here on YT (for example CSGuitar89) to create tabs just by playing a piece!

  • @jelvin1130 this promotes people into actually learning guitar and in a way it actually teaches you alot

  • Thanks for taking a shit on the guitar rock band

  • From the perspective of someone who started playing guitar hero when it came out, and has been playing real guitar for over half my life, this game looks fucking hard. I personally wouldn't be able to read tabs that fast and process that in my mind to know what the fuck I am doing. It was a really good idea, but needs a lot of work. and come on guys complaining about calluses? hahaha

  • so ive got a real guitar..so if i got rb3 i cud use it as a fancy visual tab to learn the songs..no?

  • Rock band's cool and all but it needs newer metal songs, the usual track list is pop, alternative, rock and faggy 80's metal, some's okay but not all the way through the whole damn game.

  • i like the this it can help people who never play real guitar learn and play

  • I have no problem with this. It will introduce a load of new people to guitar hopefully...

    But the way I see it, guitarist TODAY are already getting worse... With the use of the internet, guitarists no longer learn songs by ear and work it all out themselves.. they just google "crazy train tabs" and they will learn it in minutes..

    With THIS game... people will be doing the exactly same but worse... everyone will lack IMPORTANT knowledge in the music world...

  • Hey what's the name of the song in this time?? 1:44 ...thank you

  • @gonzalo728 wow I've now notice that ... also thans you

  • @gonzalo728 Hey Man Nice Shot by Filter.

  • How can you not just love this guitar trailer !

    Thanks for sharing

  • Why not learn real guitar? Not as easy but still more fun and WILL get you somewhere in life if you're good.

  • @noal63 i am learning real guitar its alot of fun but i think this would be a bit of a funner way to get a bit more practise and to learn faster

  • PRO MY ASS!!!! if you really wanna be a pro learn real guitar

  • I think you can get the real guitar online, just go to a place like Best Buy and have them order it for you if you have the money, the real guitar itself costs atleast $280.

    If just want the pro guitar with the buttons it's up to $150.

  • pretty soon the guitar will be obsolete.

  • NO CALLUSES!!! NO CALUSSES!! NO CALLUSES.... WOW.... YOUR FINGERS GET STRONGER AND GET USED TO CALLUSES IF YOU ARE ACTAULLY GOOD AT THE GUITAR..... NO CALLUSES.... WOW WHAT ARE THESE PEOPLE FOUR.... NO CALLUSES NO BALLS

  • Great shape? The guitar looks like complete shit.

  • XD.many people think they can play guitar just playing rock band 3

  • What's the song they give right before Crazy Train?

  • i see the controller has a jac. DOES A REAL ELECTRIC WORK ON RB3. I REFUSE TO GET A CONTROLLER IF I HAVE THE REAL DEAL. it has 21 frets, a whammy, 6 strings, a jack, pickup switch, volume controlls. that's more then what the controller has.

  • i am not getting the pro instruments....EVER

  • Really enjoyed this guitar trailer !

    Thanks for sharing

    God Bless

  • Is there a device that I can plug my Les Paul into to play this game? Or my Taylor or my REAL Strat?

  • I snapped a G-string fingering A minor :(

  • so bassically it's a guitar, am i the only one who thinks this will destroy the REAL guitar...why play something thats exactally like a guitar when you can a play a real guitar and have an actuall tallent. you may say it helps you practise when you are a beginner but if you play that then the skin on your fingers wont form callousses and they will hurt which will make you stop and give up because it hurts too much to play on real strings.

  • This sucks, get rocksmith instead, you can plug in any real guitar.

  • what is that?? 5:17

  • i justbuy the games that have the songs that i like

  • waht if my pro guitar string broke off ????xD

  • @EscapeFromTheSky then u buy new ones ....... duh..

  • @GNRfan6189 lol

  • Guitar Hero I, Encore, 2, 3, Rock Band 1, and 2. Those are the only games I even card about, they are trying WAY to hard to make it a real instrument. If I wanna play my guitar I'll pick it up and start playing it. I've played for 4 years and I like taking a break and having a great time on a game. I don't want more of the same. This all looks confusing. I'm glad you can still use the "Basic" mode, seems like much more fun.

  • @678Dylan678 This.

  • @leetbh I'll buy it.

  • This seems pretty pointless. If you want to learn guitar, get a real guitar and learn. This "play the game and learn guitar" crap is stupid. I play guitar and I was a fan of rock band until world tour. It's just been getting worse ever since in my opinion. You can't even read the tabs in the solo. It's like using guitar pro with all the numbers crunched together and you can only see them at the last second. Maybe it's cool to some people but it just seems really dumb to me.

  • @calves92 What the fuck are you talking about? There's no "Rock Band World Tour".

  • @Katamari101 It's all the same shit dude. There's not really a difference. Clearly I meant guitar hero world tour, dumbass. They both sucked either way. Guitar hero 3 was the last good one and after that I stopped caring. I made my point though. The idea behind this game is stupid.

  • a real way to learn playing guitar.. WOOT.. :O

  • i rather playing QWOP

  • ah i cant fucking wait

  • Hardcore!!! O.o

  • Bruh you stupid this the best thing out there, you on dat Wu tang clan

  • @BuyMEaTACOorIkillyou yeah and you are one of the dumbest people i have ever seen. IDIOT.

  • "Its really easy, you dont have to worry about tuning or strings or callicases..." way to go you made a lazier version of playing guitar "amazing"-rolls eyes-

  • Oh joy. Another excuse for guitar heroes saying they can play with actual musicians. Make no mistake, I want this game badly if for nothing else than a practice tool, but I hope there's a mode where I can use a musical staff insted of faglature.

  • can you use this guitar for any other games like band hero?

  • Wow... srsly. now even more trolls sayin "I play guitarhero i can play real guitar too!"

    Lookin on the charts of some of the songs i can for sure say, THATS NOT how theyre played. But still im stunned by the accuracy of the solos and riffs O.O That game will sure help many people to get into guitar playing. The hardest thing after playing this though will be the real strings of steel and not silly easy to press buttons.

  • @NeverGodGFX i got u there, i play drums looking at rockband drum charts its awesome, but until rockband 3 pro mode i had no idea how could u do that with gutiar, on rb it tells u what fret and string (so if its the same as it would be in the tabs, u dont even need tabs, just look at the chart) xD i play the game and the real thing but both 4 FUN and entertainment im not bashing or anything, i even use it as something helpful (u can call me cheater if u want).

  • one word.... rocksmith

  • Step 1) Buy a real guitar

    Step 2) Learn to play said guitar

    Step 3) Save yourself the agony of reading on-screen tab and playing it in real-time

  • what? you can use your real guitar for this game??

  • As a guitarist and a gamer, the only negative things I can see about this is:

    1. The fact that you'll have to learn shitty songs as well as good ones to play online and not crap out when someone picks a bad song.

    2. To some extent, it does kinda defeat the purpose of a rythm/music game.

    Other than that, the option to play an actual guitar to get some leaderboard ownage is pretty neat-o. And the fact that kids might actually pick up a real instrument through this is cool too.

  • One problem i see... OBVIOUSLY not every song is tuned the same... so if your fake guitar is tuned in standard tuning and you play a song on the game that is supposed to be played in another tuning, obviously trying to plug the guitar in the amp and play the song you just "learned" wont work. And it will piss off people who are not actual guitarist and who do not understand the who tuning part of the guitar... PREPARE TO BE DISAPPOINTED AMATEURS and realize you just got FUCKED

  • @fuzzyjem3 There's never gonna be a replacement for learning the basics. I'm pretty sure this isn't aimed at amateur guitar players; as they probably already know the concept of notes, how to tune their instrument, and can probably play a few songs.

    I'm pretty sure this is more geared towards: RB players that want to learn the real thing, and guitarists/bassists that are frustrated that people that hit 5 buttons and a flipper are getting a higher score than them. :)

  • cool thing man

    im impressed

  • how the hell i gonna do that???? 4:26

  • @ismel01 It's a technique called 'finger tapping,' or 'tapping.'

  • @TheRealCadaver man i know i play the guitar o.o i just say that is imposible to see it

  • @ismel01 Yeah, I think that's what's kinda dumb about using a real guitar to play a rythm game. I mean shit, when I want to play a game, I typically want to look at the screen and watch the graphics and play the game. But playing leads on a real guitar involves concentration and actually knowing the parts rather than interacting with the game. I'd rather just play the instrument if I'm not gonna be paying attention to the screen anyway.

  • @TheRealCadaver But when you actually play a song enough times, your muscle memory knows the feel of the song, which leads to it being a breeze. I myself don't play guitar much, but being a drummer the same applies. Complex crap being played is easy after hours and hours of playing it over and over. =D

  • @DevinRickard True, but when you're drumming you can use your peripheral vision for reference and you can memorize your own setup. Also, it's mostly coordination and muscle memory. String instruments are different in that regard. Lots of shifting, chords, scales... even the best guitarists stare at their fretboard. Either way, if I'm gonna play an instrument along with some music, I'd rather do just that. Plus, I don't want to have to learn Weezer songs. :P

  • @ismel01 ...Long comment short: I agree, the HUD is pretty dumb.

  • @ismel01 Taps.

  • @ismel01 by practising, i can do it with a real guitar.

  • @ismel01 man i say that i play real guitar and i can do tap to, bue i say that is imposible to see cuz is too fast

  • @ismel01 easy taping solo -.-

  • @ismel01

    It's just tapping.

  • @ismel01 i say that is imposible to see the bottons, but i know what it is, i play the real guitarr

  • @ismel01 if u can play the song in real u can with the fkg game dude 

  • @ismel01 A Lotta finger tapping

  • @ismel01 tapping maybe ?

  • @ismel01 Only if your Jesus...

  • @ismel01 It's called tapping, not actually as hard as it sounds or looks like. =)

  • @ismel01 Very carefully.

  • Comment removed

  • @ismel01 with skill young grasshopper, skill. (a) practice (b) dedication.

  • @ismel01 I can do that solo, on real guitar, it's not so hard.

  • @ismel01 if i can do that on a normal guitar from memory i think you can do it while watching

  • @ismel01 easy, tap. 

  • @ismel01 just play one or two weeks with pro, I played one week till I played on expert and in traingmode you can slow down the song, it isnt that hard if you know what you have to push :)

  • @ismel01 Learn to finger tap :)

  • @ismel01 its called tapping broo

  • Except I can't bend strings

  • @cubeworldseries Crazy train by Ozzy Osbourne

  • how are we supposed to do guitar solos with 17 frets?????????

  • @putoshit you play the real solo

  • @shaunfleury to make the real solo i will need the stratocaster :/

  • @putoshit no just a real guitar

  • 4:26 what's the name of that song?

  • god this must be fucking hard

  • @GHeroandRScape no its not :)

  • Imagine songs you could make in freestyle/jam

  • I may actually get this one.

  • will it blend?

  • ha lol funny if one of the main buttons broke :L

  • Its gonna make regular gamers with no experience of playing a real guitar sad. Luckily, it can support the regular ones :D I will try my best with the Pro, I never played a real guitar. In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity.

  • nothings better than a really guitar

    The pain in the begining

    Calusis are the best!!

  • what if a brake a string xD??

  • @dubbiidubi Replace it

  • HAHA! i bet they put a punch of easy songs on there

    becuase, like really they can't put a bunch of metallica

    songs becuase they would fail! lol try playing the frayed of sanity, hit the lights,jump in the fire, phantom lord, ect..

  • Try to shred on that  -.-

  • It cant teach you to bend, slide, do harmonics, or dive bombs

    so if you play this and think your really good at it and go onto a real guitar

    you would probably sound like a shitty guitarist that sounds like a robot cause the game didnt teach you technigues just fret placement and chords lol

  • @leonsanderson ur so right

  • @leonsanderson At least it's a start. Not EVERYBODY has to know how to bend, slide, do harmonics or dive bombs to enjoy playing an instrument

  • @leonsanderson Can't you just learn that stuff on your own?

  • I cant teach you to bend , do pinch harmonics , slides, or dive bombs

    fail :P

  • I think this game is a must for me! I always wished that the difficulty would step up a notch since im able to play on expert with ease (sorry, ive been hooked with these games since GH2 came out lol) plus i play real guitar too so it will be interesting to see just how realistic this is!

  • 2:40 Wheres the guitar view!!

  • I like the idea behind it, I mean some of you might think, why not just play real guitar, but what about people who play drums on rock band, it's not exactly like drums, but it's pretty close, I like this idea

  • @MystogaN25 LMAO

  • @MystogaN25 Like that's a real guitar?
