Activision has announced a whole slew of brands will be supporting the upcoming
Guitar Hero: World Tour, from amps right on down to guitar strings. It's nothing new to us, considering the company did the same thing for previous
Guitar Hero games, but the list for
World Tour is kind of
massive. It goes:
- Ampeg
- Audio-Technica
- EMG Pickups
- Ernie Ball
- Evans Drumheads
- Guitar Center
- Krank Amplification
- Mackie
- Marshall
- Orange County Drum & Percussion
- Pork Pie Percussion
- Regal Tip
- Sabian cymbals
- Vox
- Zildjian drumsticks
Of course, with
Rock Band tapping Fender for their guitar needs, and Gibson
suing everyone on the planet, we wonder why Activision hasn't found another suitable Guitar manufacturer to feature in their game. May we suggest Ibanez? They make some nice guitars!

Well, all of my guitars are Ibanez. I like their acoustics and their electrics sound good, plus they're affordable. I never could afford to spend like a thousand bucks for a guitar.
