Masses of effects pedals, amps, and cabs

Turn your Playstation 3™ into an electric guitar amplifier and play with a huge number of in-game effects pedals, amplifiers and cabinets. You can string pedals together with a nearly infinite number of combinations and you'll be able to tweak your sound until you're satisfied. Whether it's a crunchy distortion, a vintage tremolo, or a psychedelic reverb Rocksmith has it covered to make sure you can achieve the sound you're looking for.

Play songs instead of just learning them

Do you want to play new songs but don't want the laborious task of going through tablature or cringing through poorly produced videos? No problem, Rocksmith will not only present you with new songs, but will also challenge you to step away from the notes on screen and play songs by memory.

Houston Electric Guitar by Gear4music, Black

The Houston Electric Guitar is a no nonsense electric Guitar, modelled on a time honoured rock / metal style with black hardware, dual high-output open humbucking pickups and a classic hardtail bridge. Comes with a free 1/4" jack cable and gigbag.

Lightweight & Comfortable

The slim profile maple neck makes for great playability while the slightly shorter scale length makes string bending a breeze. The body is made of paulownia wood; a particularly lightweight wood that helps our guitars provide full tone whilst remaining surprisingly lightweight and comfortable.

Full Tone

Dual open coil high output humbucking pickups provide a full tone, and respond to the distortion you need for modern rock and metal without becoming muffled or mushy - providing the sound you want as well as the look.

Press Reviews

"Gear4music pride themselves on the fact that their instruments are made to decent, playable standards. We'd go one further and say they've pulled off something spectacular: great looking and sounding instruments that feel as if they'll keep these qualities until you're ready to upgrade."
