Well, there has been virtually no information released about the controllers for this game. However, the small tidbit of information about fender stratocaster guitars has led me to make a mock-up of what I think the guitar will look like. By no means is this accurate and i do not claim it to be the real thing, but once more controller information is released (and maybe pictures), i'll post that stuff here.

Mock-up picture

I thought it was cool....

By the way, coastercrazy10 is my username on some other forums....just so you don't think i took it.

INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTIONS

Guitars/Bass

Guitars are an exact 3/4 replica of a Fender Strat.

Xplorer guitars will work for 360 owners, but you may not be able to pass on all the new stuff this has.

Five familiar buttons near the top of the neck, five buttons near the body of the guitar. You will use these new buttons during specially designed solo sections using ONLY hammer ons and pull offs, no having to worry about your strum bar. Signature Fender 5-way switch has been added. By shopping at the in game store you'll be able to purchase several virtual effects pedals such as Flange, Wah, Chorus and Echo. These can be applied during your song by setting the 5 way switch to the desired effect.

Microphone

There will eventually be a Rock Band branded Mic

Other USB mics will be supported, but Harmonix will probably NOT allow the use of the 360 headset due to its low fidelity. Mics will be usable as tambourines during certain songs.

That's all for mics!

DRUMS

The picture of the drum peripheral in the mag is not final.

It consists of four pads, a kick pedal and legs for the enire unit to stand on. Think of it as a TV dinner tray stand only cooler

Leftmost pad (red) is your snare drum, everything else doubles as toms and cymbals depending on the song.

A set of real wooden drum sticks will ship with the unit.

A piece of the stand can be taken off so that the unit can sit lower, or on a coffee table.

There is a kick pedal

If you play drums in this game on hard or expert, then you're really playing the drums. Apparently you could sit down at a real set and play the same songs.

I'll probly end up getting the Drums and guitar to go with it as I'll mostly play the single player portion to this game as all of my friends suck ass at guitar hero and don't like the game much.

I'm not liking that 79.99 price tag for the drum set though.

what happened to the bass?

You play the bass lines with the guitar.

The peripherals actually look quite realistic according to GameInformer...as for the drums, they say the foot pedal feels strange because of the spring. No postable pictures though
