WESTERVILLE, Ohio, March 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The Guitammer Company (OTC BB: GTMM), a leader in low frequency sound and developer of the revolutionary, award-winning line of ButtKicker®( )brand low frequency audio transducers announced today that it has begun shipping the orders for more than 1,300 units of its flagship gaming product, the ButtKicker Gamer2.

ButtKicker Gamer2 unit sales in 2011 were almost twice (198%) the number of unit sales in 2009, and 30% more than in 2010. Based upon the number of orders already in-house and the growing back-order list, the company expects Gamer2 sales in 2012 to surpass 2011 levels.
The Gamer has become the number one choice for simulation enthusiasts and professionals worldwide. The ButtKicker Gamer2 is used in conjunction with racing and flight simulators to add the feeling of engine throttle, gear shifts, crashes and road-noise. Used by professional racing drivers, home racing and flight simulators have exploded in popularity over the last 5 years. According to a 2011 internal survey of ButtKicker Gamer2 owners, 85% use the product for either racing or flight simulation.
"ButtKicker products allow us to convey all of the finite tactile details a race car driver feels in the real car," says Chris Considine of CXC Simulations, a maker of professional racing simulators. "We only use the best components on our simulators. Our choice of ButtKicker products was no accident. We have tried every other product in the same class and the decision was easy. Our clients demand no less from us."
"ButtKicker [Guitammer] pioneered the all inclusive gaming 'package' that continues to be the benchmark and is synonymous within this burgeoning market. Add to this the expanding trend for simulators (for both professional and consumer use) in a number of strategic areas, and the versatility of the product range becomes clear," says Mike U'Dell, president of Network Music, Guitammer's distributor for Great Britain.
