Logitech Announced Premier Wireless Guitar for Guitar Hero

Oct 23 2008, 6:17am CDT | by Shane McGlaun

Logitech has unveiled its new Logitech Wireless Guitar Controller, Premiere Edition for the PS3 and PS2. The controller is the first in the planned line of peripherals and controllers for Guitar Hero games. The controller has a wood neck, rosewood fingerboard and metal frets.

Logitech uses rubber dome technology on the fret buttons to reduce noise when the controller is in use. The rubber dome is the same technology used on its line of keyboards. A touch sensitive neck slider is close to the fret buttons so strumming isn't always necessary. Wireless 2.4 GHz connectivity is used in the guitar to give 30 feet of range. The guitar will be available in December for $249.99.

“There’s no better feeling than being the guy with the best instrument when you walk into your friend’s house to jam on Guitar Hero,” said Ruben Mookerjee, Logitech’s director of product marketing for gaming. “We designed this guitar for that experience. From the humbucker to the metal frets, the whammy bar to the metal tuners, the Logitech Wireless Guitar Controller gives you the credibility you rightfully deserve.”
