Personally, I like the feel of the the xplorer that came with my GH II, rather than the guitar that came with Rock Band.

I like the Les Paul - I can blame losing on the fact that its wireless =/

I do like the original one that came with GHII - it did the job and never let me down!

That's right, it doesn't work for Guitar Hero games. For this reason I would reccommend getting one of the guitars bundled with Guitar Hero 2 or 3. The Les Paul is fantastic and my favourite and it will also work on Rock Band. Hope this helps.

I hated the Rockband Fender at first because of the squishy strum bar, but it's really grown on me and it's my favorite at this point

The fret buttons on that one are the best IMO.

The Xplorer was cool at first but the strum bar is so loose now that I accidentally over strum all the time, similarly the whammy bar is so loose it always swings down on it's own instead of staying where I set it, so trying to reach down to grab it causes me to screw up a lot.

The Les Paul is nice because it's wireless but it just feels cheap IMO. and the button spacing on the frets seems off to me... my scores are always horrible when I use it, no real idea why.

It's too bad the rock band controller doesn't work with guitar hero though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
