TAC Widow Maker Wireless Bass Guitar
I needed a guitar for my Rockband PS3 since I have always been using friend’s instruments. I decided to buy this since it works for Guitar Hero 3 PS2 as well as Rockband PS3, the two games that I have. It does work great for both of those games, although getting it to work for GH3 PS2 required a lot more than it should have. Also, I have to calibrate it every time or else it’s off 20 ms or so.
It worked well for maybe two weeks, and even then you had to press the buttons really hard, but then the buttons started sticking. This wasn’t that big of a deal in Hard Mode, but in Expert it is completely unplayable. How am I supposed to do hammer-ons when my Red button sticks for an extra second? Also, the raised bump on the yellow fret is way too rigid.. it starts to hurt your fingers after a while.
I am very upset about this guitar, having spent $60 on something that barely functions and doesn’t last at all.

This is the lousiest piece-of-junk ever made. Weighs 1/2 as much as the Strat and plays 1/8 as well. Sticky-buttons, strange strap hooks and limp whammy bar and there you have it. Came in the wrong box. Bad sign. Rubber tuning forks. Cheap. All buttons are black matt. Not Chrome as displayed. The strap hook is on the back of the guitar. Not the chrome button on the tip of the body as shown. Mine broke after 3 weeks and I don’t even care to get any kind replacement from the ant commandos. Dumb company name, too.

I like this guitar. I use it with Rock Band and have no complaints. The buttons are all the same color as in the picture. It is more matte black than shiny and the whammy bar is a little flimsy but I don’t even use that much. I like the rubber tuning keys since they are just for decor you don’t have to worry about them snapping off, and the strap placement is a lot more comfortable than other gaming guitars I’ve used. The button and strum sensitivity are good and the placement of the start and select buttons are convenient because you can easily put it into overdrive by bumping it with the butt of your palm, without accidentally pausing the game mid song. The only issue I have is the gyroscopic switch sensitivity. To put the guitar into overdrive by movement instead of pressing select you have to tilt the guitar completely vertical which causes a lot of mistakes in game. I’m thinking about taking it apart and adjusting it to react to only slight tilts. But still, I bought this guitar because it was full size, pretty, and I can customize it instead of borrowing my friends “instruments.” Thumbs up for the Widow Maker… I just wish someone would make some sticker mods for it…
