Guitar detection requires a bit of a hacky setup, I used a DS3. This game will not detect guitar unless you have some of the frets dual-bound in both Dualshock and Guitar modes. (e.g. FRET 2 is bound to L1 in Guitar and Circle in Dualshock mode) - However, Lilypad must be set to Guitar while playing. Game runs O.K.
