    I picked the game up for Xbox One today and while it's really fun the frets on my controller seem to stick a lot. Activision's website says to take the fret buttons off and clean them but doesn't say how to safely remove them. Any other GB players running into a problem with the controller or am I just super unlucky?

    @t_havok: The third black fret got stuck permanently so I returned it for a new bundle.

    The new guitar feels so much better that it made it very clear my first was flat out broken. I recommend an exchange.

    I've been through four controllers now, and none of them are even close to being as reliable as any of the guitars I got with GH1-WOR.

    It's a cool idea, and it looks nice, but the build quality just isn't there.

    I had to remove the buttons putting a fork under them and pryed them loose. I then proceeded to file down the sticky buttons with a nailfile and put them back. Bad plastic molding. Seems to have to worked.

    Mine were a little sticky when I first started playing but after about 3 days of casual play they got nice and smooth so just have s blast and eventually you will be "rocking"

    Knock on wood, but I haven't had any major issues with the guitar (the black buttons are slightly harder to press than the white ones, but it doesn't impact my experience with it). Shame to see that there are problems with both GH and RB's hardware.
