We can't say we are surprised to hear it but Guitar Hero 6 is on it's way!
In an interview with Tesla guitarist Dave Rude he let slip that they have been asked to provide one of their tracks for the upcoming release, Modern Day Cowboy is, at the moment, the only track that we are aware of but rest assured more will follow.
There are no more details about the game at the moment, but as soon as information comes out we will pass it straight on to you and in the absence of actual facts lets start some speculation! What tracks or features would you like to see in the new game? Have Activision gone as far as they can with the series now or are there still ideas to come? One thing we would like to see is more of a crossover with DJ Hero, could we see some Limp Bizkit / Linkin Park tracks with a full band and a turntable? With the release of Band Hero to please the not-too-hard music fans will Guitar Hero 6 pick up where Guitar Hero 2 and 3 left off - classic rock and harder music?
We would love to hear your thoughts and ideas, just pop them in the comments below!
Solderless Drum Repair Kit

We are very happy to bring you the latest product in our range of repair and upgrade parts for your Guitar Hero Instruments, the long awaited Solderless Drum Repair Kit.
We have been selling a drum repair kit on Guitar Hero Repair for a while now, but the feedback we have been getting is that it is quite fiddly and difficult to fit, well in response to this we have now launched the new version of this kit.
It can be used to fix any of your main drum pads on both the Guitar Hero and Band Hero drum kits and takes no more than 10 minutes to fit with just a screwdriver needed.
The drum pads work by means of a small sensor on the underside of the drum pad which picks up vibrations when the pad is hit. The wires from this sensor take the signal back to the main circuit board of the drums where all the important processing takes place. This repair kit includes a pre-assembled sensor, wire, plug for the circuit board with the special adhesive pad to allow you to attach it to the drums.
Installation could not be simpler! Open up the back of your drums with the appropriate screwdriver (Phillips or Torx 10 both of which are common sizes) unplug the old sensor wire from the circuit board (using pliers if needed) and remove the old sensor from the underside of the drums, then plug the new sensor in and stick it back to the underside of the drums using the special adhesive pad provided with this kit. The installation video above shows just how easy this repair is.
