    Got lucky and remembered that we bought my grandparents a wii and guitar hero years ago, and it's obviously largely spent most of its time in the closet after playing it a few times waaaay back in the day. Went ahead and decided to pick up it up since they obviously aren't using it anymore and it's basically almost new. Having a guitar hero controller in this good of condition feels like I'm in possession of some hidden sacred lost artifact LOL.

    I made a goodwill purchase online just yesterday (October 12 2021) for $30. I debated (A) a bundle of two untested controllers (B) 1 controller tested and working kept in the original box (original stickers, strap, etc). I decided to go with the lot of 2 so I would have a backup for DIY repairs. Both listings ended at the same price including shipping and nobody actually bid on the guitar in better condition. I bought my PS2 to USB adapter 10 years ago for $3 on ebay (they haven't changed). I am going to be playing these games for the first time through Clone Hero and emulation and am looking forward to playing, and hopefully no big repairs are needed.

    On the topic of close buttons and quick fretting. I find the rock band guitar to be the best. There are 10 frets total, 5 touch eachother at a time. Ones at the top hold your left hand and the ones at the bottom are even more compact. You can tap and strum at vary quick paces using the top and bottom frets simultaneously.

      I use a RB1 wired 360 variant and the thing about the buttons is so true. they're a bit wider than GH buttons which takes some getting used to but sliding between notes is a breeze. however personally, the strum bar is absolute trash. sticky, hard, no click so harder to stay in time on faster songs. absolute dream guitar would be a GH5 strum bar with an RB1 neck imo.

    I have an Xplorer that I bought in 2018, I paid $60 for it. Still, it's weird that the guitar hero community is getting big again, but no one is producing 3rd party guitar controllers, it's a niche that I think would selll well if the guitars were produced with good quality. It's honestly scary to think that one day there might be no more guitar controllers to buy.

    Happy to report that the two PS2 SG model guitars I bought off goodwill are working fine. My main concern is the spacing between fret buttons is way wider / more uncomfortable than the "keyboard guitar" method. I'm basing this on me being a first time Guitar Hero/Clone Hero/Rock Band player. So far I've just played through Beatles RB on Expert/Hard (3 bar difficulty songs on Expert). With a 10 year old damaged $3 PS2 to USB adapter (tilt sensor works and registers as button #7). The controllers will take some getting used to.

    One of the major cons of the ps2 controllers, is that when you do convert it to a USB port, you lose out on yhr whammy bar and tilt functionality. The tilt doesn't work at all, and the whammy acts as if it's the up strum of the guitar. And the only other guitar I have is the RB controller for ps4. Its got pretty low latency when I used it, but I much preferred listening to my strums as it also helped keep me in time with the songs.

    One problem I have with the World Tour style controllers is the slider. The slider is one more thing that can potentially break. Maybe Clone Hero doesn't support it and won't be reading any inputs from a faulty slider, but if it does it can cause some issues. I remember back when I played World Tour on the guitar that came with it, that my slider broke and would randomly strum for no reason, breaking my streak on plenty of occasions. I can tell that for some reason it was registering taps on the yellow section of the slider because it was always lit up during slider sections in the game.
    It did have a great form factor, but if you're using it to play any games that support the neck slider, I would seriously recommend having a plan for if the slider breaks.

      @@staringcorgi6475 Well, I'm pretty sure an addendum to my comment should be that all games in the series that support the slider allow you to turn it off. I'm not sure how I didn't know that, but even in World Tour, you can turn it off in the options menu. It's actually not very relevant to Clone Hero because everything is mapped by you, so you can just not map anything on the slider if you want. If it causes you problems with mapping controls (due to a slider sensor flickering) you can just disconnect it if you have the know-how and the right screwdriver.
      From a quality perspective, I think I saw somewhere that the GH5 controller is kind of the gold standard of Guitar Hero controllers in what remains of the community. It has the improvements from the WT controller (the form factor is the same and the start and select button are now right next to the strum bar). I think some people say that strum bar was improved from WT, but it's been a while since I looked into it. I'm a casual GH/CH enjoyer so I get by with my WoR controller, but I do wish I had either a WT or GH5 controller because the strum bar is pretty small on the WoR controller. :/
