I bought this game just for the guitar, basically. So looking on the compatibility chart, this guitar works with GHM, with a bonus game that sounded ok. If you buy a wireless guitar separate it is much more expensive (which I do not understand at all). I was pre-ordering Guitar Hero:Metallica so I could not get with the controller bundled, but I was guitar-less. so I played this game for a couple days waiting for GHM to get delivered and after that let it gather dust. The guitar works great.
This game was my first foray into the Guitar Hero experience and I have thoroughly enjoyed it.
I liked this game so much, It took a week to deliver but now I am satisfied with the quality of this product.
The only problem people may encounter with this bundle is that the Les Paul controller has issues with the connections in the neck some time down the road after it has experienced wear and tear. Bought this to have one for myself. Had previously played this game with this guitar controller belonging to someone else. The neck connects to the body and after a good amount of use the connection is not as secure causing one or more of the fret buttons to not register. Great game with fun replay value. Song selection is good and most are very fun to play on the hard difficulty setting. This problem could be solved (on the old controller I played with. My new one is just fine) by pushing the two pieces back together every time the problem occurred.The plus about this controller is that other than the connection issue it seems to be very reliable AND you can use this controller to also play Rock Band as it is compatible with that game as well unlike the first Rock Band guitar which was of shotty construction and started to break right away and was not compatible with Guitar Hero games.
Also, when you're holding down long notes, don't be surprised if they suddenly aren't being held down anymore. There are some really fun songs on this installment of the "Guitar Hero" series, but you're better off just buying the stand-alone game instead of the bundle, because the guitar that comes with this is a piece of junk. Unless you're pointing the neck down toward the ground, be prepared for unexpected star power launches. And when you write to customer service about the worst gamer guitar you've ever played (and I've got five others), be prepared for them to ignore you. It wouldn't be so bad if they would at least release a downloadable update to make this game compatible with the "Rock Band" guitars (like there is with "World Tour" and "GH: Aerosmith"), which are much better controllers than this.
