Rock Band 3 introduces the brand new Keyboard and 102 button guitar for an experience putting you a step closer to the real deal.
Harmonix challenges themselves to actually teach it's audience how to play selective songs in the newest installment, Rock Band 3 by introducing one completely new instrument, the Keyboard, and a guitar that's identically played like the real thing. With 17 frets and six strings, equaling an incredible 102 buttons built on the guitar.
While this guitar alone probably won't teach you how to play guitar, it's proved to be a decent and enjoyable solid start. Since it will accurately map individual notes and chords, players can learn basic chord progression and riffs of some of their favorite tunes.
Harmonix and Mad Catz will also be releasing a three cymbal expansion to the Rock Band drum set that will also be accurately mapped to Pro Mode.
