The TOMY Guitar Rockstar is going to be a hit during the holiday gift season for music lovers of all ages. It is affordable, thank God, at £14.99.
All a wannabe rock legend has to do is turn on Guitar RockStar, grab the electronic guitar neck, finger the frets and strum the infrared ‘strings’ to play a choice of two modes. Unlike similar programs like Guitar Hero, virtual strings are held down rather than buttons.
