I can attest to the adapter, it is fully worth the investment. I've been watching Clone Hero content from Acai and others in the community. The amount of nostalgia that watching those videos gave me was immense. However, I played Guitar Hero originally on the Wii and so I felt so handicapped and felt that if I ever did play again it would be a long time in the future. This adapter has let me relive my old guitar hero days. I suck but being able to play is amazing.
how many guitars do you have
fatima ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ I have 3 guitars, one of the necks was compromised from heavy use back in the day and the other two are ok. Bodies are still fine for all three as far as I’ve tested.
Two are Les Pauls, One is the World Tour guitar.
@@galenodo5153 i have 2 Wii and a wt ps2 guitar. who would have thought that Wii guitars would be the best lol
Yeah man I'm still using my wii for GH3
I can't be bothered to install clone hero (and uhh I can't exactly do it)
Same dude. I grew up playing GH3 and WT on my Wii. When I got Clone Hero I had to get a wired Explorer but it just felt off. After seeing Acai, Randy, and UKOG get the Wii guitars I immediately wanted one of these adapters, since I also have no Bluetooth in my PC and my original Wii guitars are in great condition still. Waiting on it to arrive in a few days.

I picked up a mint Xplorer from Goodwill for $6 cause it was still in the box and the game was (and still is) sealed in its vacuum wrap. It had everything still with it, even the sticker sheet is perfectly intact. You can find absolute gold in secondhand stores if you check up on their stock (there’s a bunch of Wii GH guitars at the Goodwill near me still, I might think about picking up one eventually).
The guitars cost like 60 dollars in my country
In my location guitars are $70-$110 bc they are new in box
Got mine for $2.50 :p

Wii guitar is cool and all, but what about the X-Box 360 RB3 Pro Guitar? You have 6 different strum bars there, so imagine all the raking possibilities.
Take my upvote smh
@@loFEEzy. r/lostredditors
aren't most RB guitars notorious for having awful magnetic strum bars?
but still, 6! And I thought the precision bass was crazy with its double strum bar (plus it's a good strum bar, not a magnetic one)!
@@plazasta Normal RB guitars have the awful magnetic strum bar, pro RB guitar (small clarification: the one released with RB3) has 6 strings taking the place of a traditional strum bar that are (to my knowledge) pressure based. Don't quote me on that, but I think that's how the RB pro guitar works. Very unconventional in terms of guitar controllers, but I have to get it working with clone hero first to see if the additional 5 strings actually make a difference in that regard.
@@SkyeBlueLily oh I didn't notice both pro guitars had actual strings! I thought the button one also had strum bars

Hey Alec, I'd recommend taking the foam out of your 58x Jubilees. It helps make the sound slightly more natural and even more like their expensive HD660 counterparts.
Specifically, it's the foam that rests between the outer grilles and the drivers. If you take out the foam that rests between the drivers and the pads, you'll probably just get sore ears. Just thought that I could clarify :)
@@anvecom also because headphones with naked drivers would look even sexier on stream
z reviews is the only person who thinks that. 58x without foam =/ 660s
also naked 58x drivers don't look very good imo.
@@ethanmartin2781 I'm not saying they equal 660s. I'm saying they're closer. The foam is fine if you like a warmer sound, but you lose high end clarity. 58x drivers look exactly the same as every other 600 headphone and to me they're pretty good.

@@jbroirl605 Yeah it worked perfectly
I was about to buy this adapter and a wii controller myself, just started playing two months ago after never having played guitar hero before. You were the inspiration for that, and I love it so far. Also, is that a pair of Sennheiser HD 58x’s? Nice 👌
yes they are!

It's crazy that after such a long period of them being arguably one of the worst options for PC, the single most common guitar controller is now the best one. And we spent how much on XPlorers and Wired Les Pauls?!
I thought Playstation guitars were the worst no?
also I'm frickin glad this adapter showed up. Just a few weeks after I got my Wiitar because it was the cheapest and closest one around me, talk about luck!

Dude, I'd really like to see more videos like this, directly answering common questions and showing people how things work and how to do stuff. I dig it, man.
I have 3 wii guitars and I just downloaded clone hero and ordered the adapter so I’m a very happy man right now.
I have gotten one of these adapters. I can also attest that it is SUPER good. Wii-tars are surprisingly strong for how weak they feel, so if you have a Wii-far lying around, you should pick up one of the adapters cause it makes a world of difference.
OMG! Thanks so much for making this! I love guitar hero so much and I got back into it about a year ago. I was playing it on clone hero but then my rockband guitar broke randomly. Now I can use my other guitar on the game thanks to this adapter.
If I have a wii mote plus and bluetooth on my laptop can I use it without the adapter?
I can definitely confirm the adapter is absolutely amazing. My friend gave me his Xplorer for free but I gave it back to him after grabbing a Wii guitar for $2 and this adapter. It is truly great. Also, I just realized I have the same headphones as Alec and if you like sound, those headphones are basically the Raphnet adapter of... sound... waves. Basically Alec, you got nice stuff. Great moves, keep it up, proud of you
Do you need any programs to activate the guitar or just the adapter?
The adapter came in earlier today and it works perfectly. Took a couple weeks from Canada to the US, and was about $29. Overall, totally worth the purchase. Now I can play Co-op with a Wii guitar and a xplorer. I'm stoked.
Just got myself a GH5 and a white LP with the adapter coming in the mail soon. Tyy for this video

Acai I have a question.
Should I buy a Wii guitar (it’s the Gene Simmons axe, I found it online for sale) or an Xbox 360 guitar (the site has a wired Xplorer)?
both new and in box btw
Both
deathyboy123 the Xplorer is $70 and the Wii one is $80
Alongside the Les Paul, the GH5 Guitar has a built in star power button.
I'm gonna be totally honest, I sometimes play along with videos I watch because I don't have the adapter, yet I know how good it is and that if I DO get it, I might be able to do these hard songs I'm playing along with.
Seriously, though. From watching you, Randy, George, and even Jason, I've learned chimneys, rake strumming, rake tapping, a good way to do trills, and I have greatly improved my finger speed. Hell, one time I played Band Hero (It's basically a better GH5) with friends (I usually played medium/hard) and I tried expert due to me playing along and getting used to hyperspeed and having more notes, and I sightread FC'd a REALLY hard song.
So, even though I don't even HAVE the adapter, I can attest for how good it is due to what I know I can do with it.
I got an RB1 Stratocaster I found at the FIRST goodwill I went to, specifically look for one, for 5 bucks.
Would have been perfect if it was wired, but it was a wireless Xbox 360. 35 dollar receiver, not the end of the world.
First try, tho is crazy
Hey man. I just wanted to say your videos are amazing and you are a really good like really good at this game also I love your sweatshirt in the video
The World Tour has a special Star Power button right by the strum bar BTW. It's close enough that it's pretty easy to hit without screwing up.
acai where can I find that floral skin you have on your guitar?
Thank you for making this! I feel like a lot of people needed to know what Wiitars are, and why you guys use them.
Great video Alec :D
Does any other adapter work? There seems to be a lot of cheaper alternatives on Amazon and I was wondering if I should buy one of them because the raphnet one is very expensive (for me, the shipping costs more than the adapter itself)
Finally found a shop in my area with a good price on guitars , literally took me days of searching but shoot it’s finally over 2 raphnet adapters are on the way!
Too late man, raphnets ain't worth it
They are like 5x the price of a good one now
bruh gh3 wii was my first rhythm game and my gh3 controller was a straight god for like 10 years. the whammy bar was loose, the strum bar was also sorta loose, the cable you plug the wiimote in was fraying and it carried on. i will always remember its strength. now the buttons work sometimes and sometimes they will not work at all but i will never replace my first love
the rock band guitars kinda suck, too
just ordered me an adapter, i got a wii guitar from some thrift store around my city and picked it up for like $5 a year ago. Now that i got a job and got paid, i finally need to start using the best guitar thats just sitting there.
I feel dead inside because I just ordered the wii guitar on eBay for $40 😩 was the cheapest I could find too. Nothing at local goodwills. And the raphnet is $45 after shipping!!
Did you get any extra fees after the 45 in shipping? They ship from Japan now so it's kinda steep
@@malakaibird4759 nah i just ordered last night still 45$ not sure how long it will ship
Just dropping by to say thank you for going over the controls. I just got a few of these in today and got caught up on the whammy bar and referred back to this to get it working.
u look like me wtf
Lol
lets hang out
Acai ok let me go ask my mom
I dont see it
Mitchell is it just ironic that you and the first guy that commented have the same profile picture?
If you want to buy the raphnet adapter, look up edge super game pad and there will be a controller from Walmart that includes the same adapter for $10 for the whole thing, only thing is that you would need to buy an extension usb cable but those are like less than $5 on Amazon
Raging_M3xican mine just came today. loving it
Thanks for making this video my boy
You can also just use Wii remote with bluetooth. In my country it's much cheaper than raphnet-tech adapter. But even with it I can't get it to read tilt axis.
Where did you get that skin for the guitar? Its so hype i love it
Informative and completely taken to account. Will try to find Wii guitars from now on. That sensitivity buff up could help a ton with rake strumming.
Raphnet went from $22 to $50. Lol fml.
And the best part about said adapter, it doesn't have to be exclusive to the Guitar, if you have controllers chillin, arcade sticks or such, well, this adapter alone revives them, is a nice purchase
Thanks for telling me these guitars are the better ones, I have a couple for the 360, but if I have to get some for friends, I think your video might be the solution for them
Thanks
IVE SEEN 3 WII AEROSMITH GUITARS AND NEVER BOUGHT THEM I DIDNT KNOW THIS WHYYY!!!!
I used to own one im so sad right now
i understand wii guitars being good for people who can’t afford something like an xplorer or wired lp, but xplorers generally have that flimsy strumbar, clicky (i guess cheap feeling, it makes that nice noise) frets, and strong neck support. not to mention a wired lp with a hardwired neck, my personal favorite guitar. my opinion is that if someone can afford and find an xplorer, they should go for it, especially if they find one for cheaper than the price of the adapter and a wiitar. however, a complete upgrade to an xplorer or wired lp in my opinion is a wii wor guitar. hands down the best feeling and looking guitar i’ve ever used. raphnet adapters are godsends in terms of playing songs like knights of cydonia, and the looks of a wor just adds to it. pick up a wii guitar if you’re trying to get back into gh, but always consider getting an xbox guitar if you want a nice, long standing guitar.
this was a bit of a clusterfuck, but thanks for reading

I can definitely agree. The adapter is literally perfect only problem is it comes from Canada and there’s no way to track the package. It’s so worth the 28 dollars

you can do it with a wii remote actually connected! all the programs online for it are free and safe, ive been on clone hero for about a month and don't have a lot of computer knowledge but I connected my wii remote via Bluetooth and it mapped everything well. still no tilt but didn't have to spend any money on it
yeah! i'll try it too.

Though this should definitely clear things up with everyone asking why you use it; I can still vividly remember when you told everyone to throw away your Wii guitars, but the times have changed for the better.
(i also wonder how many people will *still* ask)
I would also like to give my fullest and most sincere support to the adapter. I only had guitar hero 3 for my Wii, and eventually stopped playing because I ran out of challenging songs. As a 12-year-old, I was heartbroken that I couldn't get the DLC for my Wii. I debated buying an Xbox or GHPC just to be able to play the full version of The Devil Went Down to Georgia. Discovering the Clone Hero community and this adapter allowed me to finally play the songs that I had only dreamed about 7 years ago. Being able to play again is really special to me, so I give my sincerest support to Clone Hero and the Wii guitar adapter.
hey i have a wii guitar lemme get that shiz

What kind of PS2 Guitar? The white one, Kramer, SG, or WT?
Honestly all of my good guitars are from goodwill. Any thrift shop is always worth a look for controllers considering how much more expensive they are online for even a used one. Goodwill rarely knows what they’re selling so you can get them dirt cheap.
As long as it works I guess
I have a wired xplorer (snagged at a thrift shop for $3)
I also have a gh3 wiitar. Is it worth getting the adapter if I have the money, or is the difference mostly just the strum bar?
Me: $3?! "Wow!!"
Looks in description: $22 for adapter "oh.. i knew there was a catch"
$25 is pretty good for a guitar and a adapter.
so the whammy is calibrated and mapped, but still doesnt work?? Im so confused
Did you get your camera at good will also?
Of course, you could just install glovepie and connect it on the control panel, but if you want it to be a quicker startup, go with the adapter.
too bad glovepie is a piece of garbage program for guitar hero. use WiiTarThing if absolutely necessary

Hey Acai, i'm still having issues connecting my wii guitar to clone hero and i'm not sure why. I'm using the black third party controller you showed at 1:35 and using a classic wireless wii controller to usb adapter (mayflash) that i got off amazon. Ive been trying a lot of different things and for some reason the computer wont read any inputs from the guitar, or none of the buttons will work when i try to set the controls.

Acai I really want to buy it. But Iwant to get it on Amazon (I trust it) but most people say it doesn't work for Clone Hero. So other than the website you put in the description do you have any other links to an adapter?
I have one question, I don't know if you live in Canada or not but since the adapter is in Canada. It says if you lived outside of Canada they may pay you extra fees and stuff. So did they made you pay extra fees or it did not?
i have the logitech guitar and it works flawlessly with the adapter... great product would buy again
I use a WiiMote with WiiTarThing. It's easy to connect after a long configuration. The latency is not that bad and the batteries last a long time.
I am lucky enough to have a ridiculously rare WIRED Les Paul. Neck is fully one piece and there is absolutely zero input lag due to being wired. Just plug in PC and play. Got it as Circuit City was closing down and I asked them for their kiosk guitar.
This adapter works too ,Elecom Wii Classic controller to PC adapter. just got my adapter in from Ebay for $18.02 including shipping and works perfect with wii guitar on clone hero. Can't get the whammy bar to register though.
I bought an adapter yesterday and it should come in Monday or Tuesday! Super excited and recommend this 100%
I'm here from 2020, the adapter in the disc has been discontinued a new version is out and is now 30$, I also recommend finding a Wii Guitar at a thrift shop or anything like that because online I can't find one cheaper than 30$
I have every gh guitar except the kramer and i have found every one at goodwill for less than 5 dollars, I found two wii les pauls for 10 bucks, Ordered this adapter and it is so much better than my Xplorer, Fully worth the money

So I’m hoping I’m not too late posting this but I recently purchased a wii guitar and Raphnet adapter and everything seems to work but I’m having problem mapping the buttons of the guitar in GHWTDE.
With my 360 Xplorer I just plugged it in and it worked like a charm but with the wii one the buttons are all mapped wrong and then when going through and trying to remap them I gave them the same binding options that came preloaded for the Xplorer and it changed nothing. Went through a second time to remap by recording and pressing the buttons I wanted for each specific input but after this the strum up function doesn’t work despite the computer registering that I am strumming up, and also the buttons will work three at a time. For example green-to-yellow will work but not blue or red-to-blue will work but not green. And I cannot get the orange button to work at all, when I press it the computer does not register that I’ve pressed it (at least from what I can tell). Wondering if I may have missed a step or if the guitar is just fried. Tried reconnecting the neck multiple times but the orange still does not work. It’s not a big deal if it’s the guitar as luckily I can return it from where I bought it but if there’s something I’m doing wrong I would like to know bc without the guitar I have the adapter with nothing to use it on until I find another wii guitar, which we all know is easier said than done. Any help would be much appreciated
