re: Rocksmith

Needs more metal/hard rock songs though.

I have an acoustic-electric and wonder how much fun the game will be with this. I bought it years ago and it is collecting dust. I am a complete novice, can only play a few chords.

What do you think? It seems to made for an electric guitar. Also, how long does it take to build up callouses on your fingers......it fricking kills me to play.

well, i read somewhere when i was checking reviews that someone was using an electric acoustic. my fingers hurt the first 2 days but it didn't really keep me from playing. i have been told though, away from the game that you should learn guitar on a full electric guitar cause the strings are closer to the neck of the guitar as compared to an acoustic. not sure how true that is though. but the game should read an electric acoustic if that's all you have. like i said earlier. this game makes it fun. an hour will pass before you know it. you'll be done with 4 songs with in that hour. keep in mind that you won't play all the chords/notes. once you rank up in the game, more notes are thrown at you with each song.

it doesn't matter. the game has different amps and pedals which give you the distorted sound needed for each song.

best thing is you can use all those amps and pedals in a free mode and jam with your acoustic also.
