"The broken piece of black plastic was approximately a 2"X8" piece, which was not an operating part but a molding around one of the drum pads."
"Product was as described."
"I tried improvising the feet with my old Rock Band drum set and thought I could make it work but then the cymbals wouldn't fit and now this is useless."
"Both cymbals don't work and missing the cord that hooks them up."
"My son does like to play, but I noticed the first time he played that the beat he was playing didn't correspond to the song."
"He's first ones busted a few months after buying them and he repeatedly had to take them apart and reconnect the wires to keep them working."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I love that this guitar is wireless.However, be aware that you do have to put the wii remote into the guitar; that's what makes it "wireless" because it uses the sensor of the remote."
"The locking mechanism seems like it should be spring-loaded, but the springs came loose and are now rattling around in the bodies of all three guitars, which is slightly annoying. We had previously borrowed a couple of the actual Activision guitars to play, so I can offer some comparisons. Unlike some other reviewers, I feel that the strum bar is quieter, which is nice for those times when we can't crank the music up to cover the clicking noise."
"If I had known prior, I would have just purchased two of these guitars and not bothered with the one I purchased prior."
"these guitars are pretty much ehat I expected... knock off cheap made versions. we have to recalibrateeverytime we take our guitars to a friend's house and again when we bring them home."
"The only downsides are the noise made by the strap (it squeaks as it rotates around the knob where it connects to the guitar, which is annoying when you're playing and moving around), and the instruction "manual" (really just a single sheet of paper) that was clearly not written by a native English speaker."
"This part seemed poorly made and I've never seen that on a guitar hero guitar before."
"Rock on."
"The back cover clips broke the first time we put the wii remote into the back area."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I have prior music experience with guitar and similar instruments, and some basic theory/vocal/keyboard training from when I was in college (much of which I've forgotten). I've wanted to learn keyboard for a while, and RB3 moving into the realm of more realistic instrument play is a welcome change for me. I found that I was able to jump right into career/quickplay at a medium pro level (mostly single notes with some 2-note intervals on more advanced songs). Other than that I am finding where notes are primarily by feeling around (locations of black keys give you some guidance). Game-play is a lot of fun if you are willing to take the time and energy to learn, or you must be satisfied with easy or non-pro mode."
"Price wise, you can’t beat that, a normal hand held Keytar will cost at least a couple of hundred dollars and more for the ones that actually play music rather than being just a Midi Interface."
"this only works with rock bad 3- no other rock band games are compatible with the keyboard- I thought this would allow us to add a 5th player to the game but it does not, you just loose one of the other instruments :( this is by far the hardest instrument to learn and play this game with!"
"At time of purchase I rationalized that interest level (or lack there-of) in 2015 was the reason for lower price and went ahead."
"Added the batteries, plugged it in and kids were playing rock band 3 with it on wii u within minutes."
"Be aware, however, that most of the older downloadable song content (especially for Rock Band 1 or 2) lack keyboard options in scoring/software development, so the system automatically blocks keyboard access by showing "No Keyboard" available for those songs."
"NOTHING worked."
"Then when I started playing some more, the video froze again and after about 3 minutes I had no other option that to turn off the Wii and restart. They basically told you how to put the batteries in, hook on the shoulder strap and sync the device (via a USB dongle that has to remain plugged into the back of your Wii while using this controller)."
