Eddie Knox (also known as Arthur Rose) is the 6th character and appears for the first and only time in Guitar Hero II, but returned in Guitar Hero: World Tour. There has been no official statement describing why Eddie Knox was not included in Guitar Hero III. He is a greaser, which means he follows trends established in the 1950s (which represent the birth of rock, in the form of rockabilly), so his style can be compared to that of Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, and Brian Setzer. He appears on the cover of the Xbox 360 version of Guitar Hero II, along with Casey Lynch.

[edit] Appearance
[edit] Guitar Hero II
Eddie Knox has two outfits, one available at the start of the game, and one available for purchase in The Store.
[edit] Reno
With this outfit, Eddie is wearing a torn shirt exposing his test-iles and heavily tattooed bunyans. He is also wearing normal jeans with a belt.
[edit] Vegas
In this outfit, Eddie wears a jacket with a shirt underneath, and is wearing pants that look like the jacket. His sideburns also mysteriously disappear. Also, the sleeves of his jacket cover up the majority of Eddie's many tattoos, and somewhat not noticeable, the visible tattoos slightly change position when compared to his "Reno" outfit.
[edit] Guitar Hero World Tour
- Torso: Ratty Rod Top
- Pants: Ratty Rod Jeans
- Shoes: Zebra Skin Kickers
- Accessories: MackEnchow (left arm), True Chains (right arm)
[edit] Guitar Hero: Metallica
In Eddie's default outfit, he wears a plain white t-shirt, dark ripped jeans, a black fingerless glove on his right hand, a studded watchband with a skull in the middle, and spiked boots. Eddie also sports the same tattoos from GHWT.
[edit] Guitar Hero Smash Hits
Eddie's default outfit in Smash Hits looks similar to his default outfit from World Tour.
