The Riffmaster Wireless Guitar Controller is now available

In January, PDP revealed they are bringing back the era of gaming instruments with the Riffmaster that is made for Fortnite Festival. The Riffmaster wireless guitar controller is now available to purchase and it comes with a hefty price of $129.99 USD.

The Riffmaster is compatible with Fortnite Festival Pro Lead and Pro Bass song parts and it will work with Rock Band 4. When PDP first announced this guitar, pre-orders sold out hours after and those who did get an order in will be part of the first wave that is rolling out now.

“Response to the RIFFMASTERdesign has been overwhelmingly positive,” said Trevor Lehr, Director of Product Management, Performance Designed Products. “Long-time Rock Band loyalists have quickly picked up what we’re laying down with RIFFMASTER,and a whole new generation of rhythm-action gamers can now have a Fortnite Festival experience like never before.”

Here is what the Riffmaster features:

Now compatible with Fortnite Festival (Pro Lead and Pro Bass song parts) and Rock Band 4.

Play with both hands.We feel you, lefties. The RIFFMASTER’s design accommodates both left and right-handed maestros.

Crank it up to 11! Includes a 3.5 mm audio jack and has D-pad audio controls enabling on-the-fly volume adjustments.

Take the band on the road. A collapsible design makes for easy storage and transport, and the luxe shoulder strap provides added comfort.

If you are a Fortnite Festival player on the Nintendo Switch it seems that the Riffmaster will not work with that console for now. You can purchase your guitar now on the official PDP Store.
