Please head the words Checky said very closed. Your Best bet is to pick up a KOC (Konami Official Controller). Try as best you can to stay away from the Topway brand controller. These are third party. I've never used one, but I've heard enough about them to let people know not to get them. Ebay has 4 DM KOC's each varying in price. You can find them here: Drummania Controller items on eBay.com. Alternativly you could ask Jumbo in the Marketplace thread if he can find you one. He's over in Jap. and is finding items for people and getting them for them. This is how I got my DM KOC. You can find a link to the thread here: http://www.bemanistyle.com/forum/f48...oks-etc-28517/.

Also, as Checky said, you can't effectivly use the Guitar Hero guitar on the earlier versions of GF due to not being able to button map. If having to use a dual shock in the menus, and then swapping the controller out after you select the song, doesn't bother you, then it's an OK route to take. I've found though that using a GH controller for GF, i get alot of misses in certain runs. I'm not exactly sure why, but i think it has something to do with how the pick registers differently between each controller.
