FCC employees must have had a lot of fun testing out this one. Though the hipsters might call it
Exhibit VFR822151, to the layman it's the Bluetooth-enabled wireless
Rock Band guitar for the PlayStation 3. Shown on the site are some test reports, pictures of the guitar's innards (ew!) and snippets of the manual.
Somewhat perplexing is the picture of a USB dongle (pictured after the break). Because of the Bluetooth technology, the guitar shouldn't need an intermediary device to connect to the PlayStation 3; however, the user manual included with the FCC exhibit clearly show the dongle as part of the setup process. Perhaps it'll become clearer closer to
Rock Band's holiday launch.
