Mad Catz has announced the Wireless Rock Band Fender Precision Bass guitar for use with the PlayStation 3, which is scheduled to ship this fall for $89.99. Compatible with Rock Band, Rock Band 2, the upcoming The Beatles: Rock Band game, alongside other music and rhythm games, the Wireless Fender Precision Bass guitar represents the first PlayStation 3 accessory to be developed and distributed by Mad Catz under license from SCEA and is the first licensed Bass Guitar to hit the platform.

An accurate replica of the world-famous Fender design, the Precision Bass operates via a secure 2.4GHz connection and features the unique Mad Catz Split Strum Bar which allows gamers to pluck and strum twice as fast by replicating both up and down fret bar movements, delivering authentic bass playing action. The premium Fret Buttons deliver quiet operation and reliable game play.

The Fret Buttons and the Split Strum Bar have been extensively play tested to ensure that it is possible to achieve a 100% score in ‘Expert Mode’ should the players ability be up to the challenge. The Bass will be available in a choice of White, ’Hot Rod Red’ and ’Sea Foam Green’ colors.
