Squier Stratocaster for Rock Band 3 set to tour March 1st for $280

We’ve been waiting on this one for quite awhile… and well, we’ve got awhile longer. Fender has come clean with the price and release date of its Squier-branded Stratocaster for Rock Band 3 will hit the road on March 1st for just a penny shy of $280. The six-stringed warrior — which also serves as a MIDI controller and a real instrument — has far and away been our favorite method of playing the rhythm game’s new pro guitar mode, and though the button-laden Mustang is available now for just over half the price, it really doesn’t compare to the real thing here. Even the January 1st pre-order seems a ways off — guess we’ll be brushing up on our keytar skills in the meantime.
