Storage Solution for Your Rock Band Peripherals
January 10, 2009 8 Comments
Pretending to be a rock star by playing video game controllers in the shape of various instruments is a damn good time but effectively managing the cumbersome clutter from the array of mandatory plastic peripherals is not. Those who appreciate an organized and unblemished living environment can finally say goodbye to the constantly growing visual eyesore of fake instruments with an attractive offering called the AK Rock Box. Compatible with Rock Band accessories only, the AK Rock Box safely stores two gaming guitars, drums, a foot pedal, and a microphone all within a convenient dark brown ottoman. While this piece of functional furniture which doubles as storage quietly released last October, it’s currently on sale at Amazon.com for $183.11 plus free shipping (down from $299.99, saving you an impressive $116.88). While I’ve always housed my drumsticks in a cigar humidor (which has the added benefit of making them smell absolutely heavenly), I haven’t been able to cram my entire drum set in there quite yet. Now I don’t even have to try.

As I’m considering getting Rock Band 2, I’m very interested by this.
This is actually a good idea! But putting the drum set together every time I wanted to play, and then having to take it apart to put it away… way too much time. Plus, I’m lazy.
I”m not into the Rock Band / Guitar Hero games… I’d rather play my guitar – but I guess rhythm games would be fun for people who don’t play any instruments. But how many of these games can they release though in succession though? The market is getting saturated, I think, at this point and I’m surprised people aren’t tired of them yet.
its way to expensive and the gh:wt drums look like they would have difficulty fitting(since its only for rock band peripherials) it is a great idea though
Want.
WANT.
Seeing as I rarely use the drums, I would not mind putting them together every time. Even if I left them together, I could put a lot of other crap in there instead, like regular controllers, play and charge cables, games themselves, wireless keyboard, etc.
Yeah, I really want this too. And the price is more than reasonable in my opinion.
Wait a sec… I just watched the video on amazon showing it, and the drums actually mount to a lift inside the box. hmm.. looks kinda hard to play like that.
