Additions:
The X-Plorer was widely criticized for its poor back button placement, rendering it virtually impossible to use for activating
Star Power. Simple mods have been conceived to fix the problem, including, but not limited to, taping nickles or cardboard to the top of it. More on these mods can be found in
User_BriGuy BriGuy∞'s
Guitar Modding 101∞ thread.
It has also been noted that the whammy bar is inferior to that of its sister guitar, the
Les Paul⇒. On
Game_GuitarHeroII Guitar Hero II∞ the deference is negligible, but it is much more of a problem in
Game_GuitarHeroIIILegendsOfRock Guitar Hero III∞ and its expansion, Game_GuitarHeroAerosmith Guitar Hero: Aerosmith.
