Get Plugged In

Rocksmith includes a unique quarter-inch to USB cable that is the first of its kind and allows users to plug in the Metal X with a quarter-inch jack directly into your PS3. Developed exclusively for Rocksmith, this 11.25 cable turns the guitar's signal from analog to digital, allowing it to be recognised and played through your games console for the first time.

Masses Of Effects Pedals, Amps & Cabs

Turn your Playstation 3 into an electric guitar amplifier and play with a huge number of in-game effects pedals, amplifiers and cabinets. You can string pedals together with a nearly infinite number of combinations and you'll be able to tweak your sound until you're satisfied. Whether it's a crunchy distortion, a vintage tremolo, or a psychedelic reverb Rocksmith has it covered to make sure you can achieve the sound you're looking for.

Play Songs Instead Of Just Learning Them

Do you want to play new songs but don't want the laborious task of going through tablature or cringing through poorly produced videos? No problem, Rocksmith will not only present you with new songs, but will also challenge you to step away from the notes on screen and play songs by memory.

The Metal X Electric Guitar by Gear4music

Authentic Looks

The body has a superior finish, giving your guitar the deeper, sophisticated look you'd expect from a guitar made by other leading brands.

Great Playability

A slender shallow contour neck ensures a comfortable playing experience. The body is made of paulownia wood; a particularly lightweight wood that helps our guitars provide full tone whilst remaining surprisingly lightweight and comfortable. The gentle side body curve also makes sitting to play this guitar a breeze - great for long practice sessions!

Full Tone & Response To Distortion

The combination of one open coil and one closed high output humbucking pickup provides a full tone, and response to the distortion you need for modern rock and metal without becoming muffled. The Metal X pushes the envelope further to ensure you get the sound you want as well as the look.

Press Reviews

This guitar was awarded 4 out of 5 by Music Radar - a leading online publication for musicians.

"We enjoyed thrashing away on the guitar and, to its credit, the Metal X withstood a serious amount of abuse."
"For aggressive solos, the bridge pickup really sings, especially on the higher notes, and the big cutaways allow unrestricted access to all 24 frets."
"The paulownia body...is a mix of smooth curves and 'you'll have your eye out' spikes and edges. It undoubtedly looks the business."

"...the Metal X holds plenty of potential, bolstered by a likeable tone and the all-round fun image." Paul Salter, Guitar Buyer magazine

"Acoustically the Metal X is bright and loud with decent balance and sustain. It certainly looks the part, and plugged in it sounds the part too." Guitar and Bass magazine
