I'm using the monster in my avatar, an overhauled kid's toy guitar with the brains of a usb keypad.
Instructable on How I made my FoF controller. Here.
I wish I had enough creativity and technical knowledge to create my own Frankentar...
Since I don't, I'm currently operating with my keyboard. Whenever I get the chance, I'm gonna head out to pick up a USB-to-PS2 converter. I'm sure it'll hurt my score in some songs, but I think my score will get better in others.

Currently I'm using my keyboard but I was wondering;
If I buy a guitar controller from http://theantcommandos.com/ does it plugin with usb or will it only plugin to a Playstation 2 controller slot?

anything that actually looks like a guitar is a PS2 accessory. you need an adapter.

So my only ways to play are to bend space time so i can play in air (im cant do tis ...yet) play with the keyboard down (which is a sin) OR plug in my old keyboard every time i want to play ... which i do lol (this is what im got if n e one is wondering WTF im talkin about http://www.alpern.org/weblog....s.html)

I use my SG guitar controller. The PS2 to USB adapter was the best $12 I've ever spent.

lol no you get used to it and besides (ive said in other post) i play guitar 6 hours a day ... i can hardly feel cement. no the hardest part of getting used to is the vlad suface and no wrist rest. plus i had to change my hand placement because i usually hit the space bar with the side of my thunmb and its hard to do that they are preety cool. but for gamers its nothing more then a novalty.
