The new Guitar Hero controllers allow for even more bad rocker behavior. The new controllers can handle some light smashing.
All of the controls have been moved to the neck of the guitar. Activision plans to sell swappable guitar bases or if you are the hard rocker smashing type, replaceable guitar bases. And if you accidentally get a little too excited after smashing your record and you end up smashing the neck of the controller, it can also be replaced. Now you can smash away with the new Guitar Hero controllers.
