Most of you may not even know who they are but, Aly and AJ have their own game guitar design which will be compatible with Guitar Hero and Rock Band video games. The guitars will be in retailers Mid-October and selling for $69.99. Aly’s guitar features heart-and-crossbones print in pink and brown giving it a rocker chick style. AJ’s guitar is in the shape of the Aly & AJ heart logo featuring a bright pink and purple zebra print.

The sisters, who are gamers themselves, worked with PDP to come up with several designs. PDP then tested the designs with several hundred girls between the ages of 8 and 17. The girls rated the body shape of the guitar, the graphics, color and fret inlay and headstock. The results supported PDP’s desire to launch two guitars – one aimed at tweens ages 8 to 12 and the other for teens and older.
