Quick update!
I know a few people have expressed concerns over where the "menu" button was on the Xbox Jaguar guitar. The dev team has done some code magic, and left on the D-Pad will activate Overdrive when the Rivals patch hits in the fall!

This is working on both PS4 and Xbox One, so PlayStation players will soon be able to activate via a button, just like Xbox players had on the Stratocaster. D-pad activation will work on the Strat as well, it's just not as convenient as it will be on the Jaguar.

I've gotten a bunch of hands-on with the Jaguar already, and it feels really good. The foldable neck is solid, and there's a ribbon that keeps a constant connection, so it'll be much more reliable than some of the detachable necks of the past that had pin/contact issues.

 Yes, this means that you can play the guitar when it's folded if you really want to.
(News about the expansion pack itself is coming soooooooon™...)

You can't, the Jaguar doesn't have a 5-way switch (for Rock Band or in real life!).

I mean, we're not hiding that, that's absolutely a benefit as well. That's just not the only benefit. It's smaller if you're storing it at home, it's easier to travel with, and it makes for a smaller box in retail. It doesn't have to only be one of these things.
