There's more to being a guitar hero than pulling stupid faces and sticking out your tongue; you have to be pretty handy on the old six string. Unfortunately that takes years of dedication and tons of talent. So wouldn't it be great if you could play like a pro, jam with some rock gods and blow away your friends without all that tricky string-plucking business?
The ingenious Power Tour Guitar lets you do exactly that and you won't even have to pick up a plectrum. That's because this pro-sounding electronic axe is touch-sensitive and brimming with hi-tech thingamabobs that teaches wannabe rockers how to...well, how to rock!
Rawk!
Fully licensed by legendary plankmeisters Gibson, the stylish Power Tour is totally unputdownable. Why? Well for starters you won't have to learn any chords. Just follow the lights on the neck with one hand and 'strum' the sensor above the scratch plate with the other. It's so easy you'll be making a complete Slash out of yourself in no time.
Modes and effects
With the Power Tour you can also play along to several preloaded classics, including Smoke on the Water and Wild Thing. But don't worry if you've got the musical talent of punk rock reject because this clever instrument features various difficulty levels plus a 'learn' mode that teaches songs in segments.
Jam to your MP3s!
If you're thinking this is some novelty axe that sounds like a toy, think again. The Power Tour's built-in speaker emits a suitably crunchy kerrang and there are enough built-in effects to blow your wig off! You can also hook up to an amp or listen via headphones. As if all that were not enough, you can even plug in an MP3 player and rock out to your own tunes. Awesome! (That's muso-speak for brilliant).
Rock even louder with our new Amplifier!
As well as chords, the Power Tour allows you to bend notes and play hammer-ons, pull-offs and all the other fiddly-diddly stuff popularized by the likes of Van Halen and Hendrix. In fact the only thing this incredible axe can't do is teach you how to pull all the moves, shapes and stupid faces worthy of a true guitar legend. For those about to rock, we salute you! Kerraaaaang!

Received my Power Guitar today after ordering it two days ago which was incredible (well done firebox) who also included a little bag of sweets which was hungrily eaten while unwrapping the black electric guitar. Very easy to play, in fact the hardest thing was taking it out of the box. Has four different modes including jam (play freely), learn (teaches you), Spkr (plug into an amp or an iPod and it will give you a light show) and band to play along with the songs you have learned! Incredible stuff.

You won't learn to play guitar using this. But that said I bought it because having tried to learn and given up, this really is the next best thing. It does sound cool if a little quiet and will benefit from plugging into a stereo or an amp. I'll be using headphones until I can play a little better.
The overall quality of the guitar is pretty good and doesn't look too much like a toy. In all, well worth the money and the ability to jam along to your own music should keep you coming back for more.

This is so cool, its on my wishlist for sure!
Lewis Jones, Liverpool - Nov '07 |
Yes for sure this product will not teach you guitar, but with jam mode its a instrument itself, it is so cool and great fun to play.

 | Stylophone Original
The brilliantly bizarre, totally addictive instrument made famous by everyone's favorite paint-chucker is back, and it still sounds unlike anything else on earth. As used by luminaries such as Bowie, Pulp and St. Rolf himself, this pocket electronic organ is a musical legend. Skweeeal!

 | V-Beat Air Guitar
No it's not one of Pete Townshend's broken axes, it's a two-piece motion-sensitive guitar that makes rocking out easy. Simply strum the air whilst moving the headstock closer or further away from the body to change pitch. You can even play along to preloaded tunes. Rawk!
