Guitar Hero guitars have always been far better than Rock Bands. I expect this time to be no different. I believe Guitar Hero's drums will better or at the least, as good as the Rock Band drums.

Rock Band's guitar was a piece of trash. May it live it's life encased in feces. The drum's also have some poor hit detection on fast parts.

Fixed.

Anybody with common sense realizes the superiority, especially the Guitar Hero 2 guitar, over Rock Band's. The Rock Band strum bar felt weak. A bunch of them broke on people, The little plastic lines on each side of the 5 frets that sticks up impedes your ability to play chords correctly. The guitar was thin and weak and the strum bar was excessively big.

More Rock Band instruments...for me to poop on!

If you really want a nice set of drums, here ya go.  $300 for a set that works with Rock Band and is also a fully functional electric drum set.

I could be wrong but if this has a midi output it should work with the GH: WT drum set as well, which if I'm thinking about it correctly would leave you with 7 drum heads, 5 raised cymbals (hi-hat, low-hat, crash, and ride), and 2 kick peddles.

Of course if it doesn't have a midi output there are plenty of drum sets similar to it that do that will work with WT. 

I must admit though I really like the look of this drumset, it appears very well built.

im a fan of rock band and the only way i will buy a new fake drum kit is for the Rock Bnad 2 ion kit.

Expensive yes but it's no toy.

With GH, you can use any midi drum set. If I'm going to spend that kind of money on a fancy drumset, might as well get the real thing.

First, my post was a joke.  Sobeit.  I prefer the RB guitar feel.  Maybe the GH guitars are better made.  I've played the hell out of my RB instruments and none have failed so I can't speak to the quality of them overall.  I strongly prefer the flat buttons over the raised ones.  It's all in what one is used to I suppose.
