I've now played this a couple times at a buddy's house. He and I are both guitarists (he's WAY better than me--we play jazz with him on guitar and me on piano), so it was fun to rock out in head-to-head.
I'll say this: at higher levels, the game REALLY captures the feeling of playing guitar. SRV's "Texas Flood" on Hard was a serious challenge (with about half an hour of playtime under my belt), but when you nailed a pattern, it felt a lot like playing it on an actual guitar.
One thing I noticed while sitting out a tune--the drummer who plays behind you has his animation synced with the actual drums in the song. It's a very nice touch.
