Ever since GH:WT, mostly everyone would avoid the Slider Bar. People say it is too sensitive and not accurate. Well you are all wrong! The Slider Bar is amazingly good for hard solos and such. I think I have the Highest recorded percentage of Solo F on Satch Boogie yet.

My slider bar freaks out when i try to use it. I wish I knew how to properly use it but its whatever. I play the drums anyways.
Slider Bar is just fine if you want to get used to it. Most people do not want to take the time to get used to it, however.
First off, that annotate "116+1=117 I CAN HAZ R3C0N!!?" Seriously? Second and on topic... I've tried the slide bar but can never the right notes. When I'm sliding back and forth I can't tell when I'm about to switch to a different note. The grooves aren't pronounced enough. It's also awkward moving from the buttons to the slide bar and I can't doo it without missing a beat.
I am also a fan of the Slide bar. I'm not the greatest at it but I'm relatively well. Though, I have to use my slide bar for strumming anyway, My strum bar broke about a month ago. ='(
