Our friends at Harmonix have done an amazing job of capturing the power and style of legendary Fender products within the virtual gaming experience and delivering it all in the spirit of rock ‘n’ roll,” said Bill Mendello, CEO of Fender Musical Instruments Corporation.

In addition, Roland Corporation and BOSS brands will be featured in the game.

Rock Band is scheduled for release on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 towards the end of 2007.
