Feel like throwing AU$400 at a play guitar?  Well Logitech have a deal for you.  Presenting the wireless Guitar Hero controller; featuring a wooden neck and body, rosewood fingerboard and metal frets.  If it wasn’t for the coloured fret buttons and the fact you are standing in front of a PlayStation, you could be playing the real thing.

Many folks have already looked at the images below and gone “whoa! That looks fantastic – how much?”

And with good reason, Logitech have (as reported earlier on iTWire.com)   produced a new wireless controller that looks like the real deal.  If you have a spare AU$399.95 lying around the house, and don’t feel like spending that on a real stringed axe, then this could possibly be the controller for you.

Logitech Australia say: Logitech Australia today announced the Logitech Wireless Guitar Controller for PLAYSTATION 3 and PlayStation 2 computer entertainment systems. Featuring authentic materials including a wood neck and body, a rosewood fingerboard and metal frets the Logitech Wireless Guitar Controller is for gamers who truly want to play like a rock star.

“Logitech’s new guitar controller delivers the same unparalleled Guitar Hero experience to an even broader group of gamers and at a great value,” said Nick Angelucci, Logitech Austalia’s Product and Marketing Manager.

Everything about the Logitech Wireless Guitar Controller is premium from the authentic wood material and flawless black finish, to the noise-dampening design of the strum bar and buttons, to the authentic accents provided by the metal frets.

The Logitech Wireless Guitar Controller offers a one-piece contoured wood body preferred by many of the world’s leading rock guitarists. For reduced button noise, Logitech uses rubber dome technology on the fret board controls, the same material used in its award-winning keyboards. The guitar controller also incorporates a touch-sensitive slider, located on the neck of the guitar controller so you can rack up the points.

So you’ll be free to go where the music moves you, the Logitech Wireless Guitar Controller lets you jam at a range of up to 10 metres from the console and offers hundreds of hours of battery life.

The Logitech Wireless Guitar Controller will be available in a pristine black finish complemented with a glossy black pick guard. The Guitar Controller is licensed by Activision Publishing, Inc. for the award-winning Guitar Hero franchise.

*Pricing and Availability*

The Logitech Wireless Guitar Controller for PLAYSTATION 3 and PlayStation 2 computer entertainment systems is expected to be available in Australia in June for a suggested retail price of $399.95 (AUD).
