Hello, and welcome to our guitar rising UK fan site. For those of you that don’t know what guitar rising is, it’s a video game similar to the guitar hero series - which is basically holding a ‘guitar controller’ instead of an ordinary one and hitting the right notes on the guitar as they come up on the screen… much like a dance mat scenario. Well, Guitar Rising is different. Here’s why:
Guitar Rising isn’t played with some guitar shaped controller… it’s played with a real guitar. So you take your guitar, plug it in, load guitar rising, and you’re away. We think it’s going to be a fantastic way to learn guitar for guitar newbies, and a good challenge for those seasoned guitar pros out there.
The game is expected to be available on PC and MAC, we’re not sure about the consoles yet… or the prices. We’re thinking they’ll have packs, like the game and a USB guitar all in one… we’re not sure. Let’s wait and see…Be sure to subscribe to the RSS feed so you don’t miss a thing ![]()

Hi
Looking forward to Guitar Rising as I’ve just bought a guitar and want to learn. I did have one some years ago but never got very far with it so lost interest.
I also have Guitar Hero III and agree, it’s just not the same as doing it for real (not that I ever have but would love to)
Rock on!!!

Humph, you’ve changed my mind! Your arguments are convincing indeed. Despite I’m not a person who is easy to be convinced.

Trust me when I say this: There is no way you will be able to shred on a video game. Not to be negative or anything, but this will definitely not replace a real guitar.
