I knew nothing about the guitar and five minutes into it I felt like i was a rock star the game is well made it doesnt have that teachy preach tutorial feel to it. Its more of a learn as you go and its just like guitar hero you just some how magicaly figure it out the next day. I will never forget right after I played the first song like a hundred times I used the amp option and just played the tune out to myself thats all I wanted is to learn a couple of tunes and i did. This is waaaaayyyyy better learning wise than just grabbing a book and going at it because you actually get feedback and it tells you when your playing badly and what you need to do to fix that last note I love this game.

This "game" is extremely well put together. The dynamic leveling logic is like having a teacher with you. Having a background in music and some guitar playing years ago, picking up the axe included with the bundle felt comfortable. I will say for those without any musical knowledge will be missing out as you learn to play the guitar, but you can still master the songs and guitar techniques such as slides, hammer-ons, chords, etc. My son has never touched a real guitar and is already hooked. It is challenging, much more so than the plastic guitar games. It isn't something you will sit down and "beat" in a couple of days. This will last you months, if not years. And yes, they will be adding a bass guitar option via DLC at a later date. There is an article on the net discussing it, so I won't go into the reasons why they didn't include it out of the box.
