It's always comforting to put a face to a name, and for those who have been
raucously awaiting more details on the elusive Rock Band
controller, dig in. According to a purported GameStop newsletter, the ten-button axe does indeed favor a
Fender Stratocaster, and while the frets appear fairly subtle head-on, those looking down on the device will notice the colorful labels (shown after the jump) that they've grown used to. Additionally, the tidbit also divulged that the instrument "would allow players to manipulate sound through reverb, flange, wah, delay and more," but there was no mention of the presumably lofty pricetag that this thing would eventually sport. Looks like the Fender fanboys will soon be able to really duel it out with the
Gibson purists, eh?
