Rock Band instruments coming in February and April
FINALLY, EA has announced that they will be selling Rock Band drums and Rock Band guitars separately. The drum kit will be arriving in stores two days before Valentine’s, February 12th, for the price of $79.99, while the guitars are coming in April for $59.99. This marks the first time wireless guitars will be of use on the Xbox 360 version of Rock Band. There is no word on whether or not the company will be selling microphones yet.
Money-milking EA sure has put a steep price on their controllers, especially since the game bundle with a guitar, mic, and drum kit included, costs $169.99. If you do the math, or if you simply glance at the prices for the equipment, you’ll notice that this is a total ripoff. If you don’t already own the game, you’re better off buying the bundle. If you do and you’re looking for another instrument, I suggest using Ebay. These prices are just too bad.

They obviously don’t want to price them equivalent to what you get from the bundle, as they want people to get the bundles instead. Honestly, those prices are about in line with what I was expecting (though I was expecting really high prices to begin with).
Yea these are the prices we have had since we got the reserve skus.
The prices are around what they should be (guitar hero wireless guitars cost $60) i think that rock band is a much improved version of guitar hero though, seeing as you an now solo on the higher fret buttons!
