Hi, i found this on amazon.de:

It's a simple FoF-Mod, using a rather unusual neck display:

Although they charge 8 € for it on amazon, a GPLv2 Licence is included, so the more curious might take a closer look at the actual mod here:

Guitar star (Programm files only): Download
Included 4 song pack: Download

I remember that this game was already known since a long time :)
But I didn't remember that it was so FoF-based (just remembered the neck angle).
The creators of FoF could attack them in justice for using a modified freeware as a paying program...
No?

EDIT: Found the topic: Guitar Star

sorry, didn't find it on the search function

@MistTribe: Is it legal to sell? Since the authors have included GPL and include the modified source code, it seems to be legal to sell.

@KidNinjaX: Is it is legal to download it for free? Since it is licenced under GPL, redistribution free of charge is also legal.

But: You may only wish to download it out of curiosity, actually playing with this ain't a lot of fun, the fretting on the included songs is also quite lame IMHO.
Mass Effect FTW :)
