However, the game's track list was considered to be too broad, and controversy arose over the ability to use the avatar of Kurt Cobain to perform in any other song within the game. Improvements to both the Career and competitive multiplayer modes were also highlights of the game. The game also sold well, however, it sold about less than 50 percent of Guitar Hero: World Tour's sales, specifically selling 1.2 million copies across all platforms. The game was well received by reviewers, who appreciated the improvements in the accessibility of the game, allowing players to immediately jump in and play without spending excessive time in the game's menus. A majority of existing downloadable tracks from World Tour are forward-compatible with Guitar Hero 5, along with selected on-disc tracks from World Tour and Guitar Hero Smash Hits, and songs from the game could also be exported for a fee to play in its sequel, Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, and spin-off game Band Hero. The game continues to support the user-created music studio introduced in World Tour through GHTunes, and additional downloadable content for the game was also made available. Players can also create their own character and instrument to play with. Guitar Hero 5's track list contains 85 songs by 83 separate artists, and like previous Guitar Hero games, several musicians with works in the game have been modeled through motion capture for playable characters in the game, including Johnny Cash, Carlos Santana, Shirley Manson, Matthew Bellamy, and Kurt Cobain. Many of these changes were added to make the game a more social experience, allowing players across a range of skill levels to be able to play cooperatively and competitively against each other both locally and online. Guitar Hero 5 adds several new features, such as drop-in/drop-out play, bands composed of any combination of available instruments, a Rockfest competitive mode consisting of several various scoring mechanisms, and both song-specific and general Challenges to unlock new avatars, clothing, and other extras in the game. The game is available as a standalone title, allowing players to use existing compatible instrument controllers, and as a bundle that provides these controllers. Similar to the preceding title, Guitar Hero World Tour, Guitar Hero 5 is geared towards playing in a four-person band experience, including lead and bass guitar, drums, and vocals. The game was released internationally in September 2009 for the PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Wii and Xbox 360 consoles. It is the fifth main installment in the Guitar Hero series.

One person claims they had to push the neck behind them to activate it. Some claim that Star Power engages randomly, while others say that, for them, star power almost never activates, no matter how hard they try. Finally, many players have claimed that they experienced problems with the guitar's tilt sensor. Also, the whammy bar of the guitar is just as breakable as the other guitars in the series. The buttons tend to stick and become unresponsive after many hours of play. The Les Paul controller has been criticized for several reasons, one being that the detachable neck provides for a weak connection between the frets and the main guitar, occasionally resulting in dropped notes. The Xbox 360 controller features an Xbox guide button and the color of the guitar can either be white or black. The Wii Les Paul controller (pictured on the right) features an opening in the back of the controller, in which the Wii Remote is placed. The controller came with many stickers, including Guns N' Roses stickers. It features a detachable neck and the rounded off buttons found in previous Guitar Hero controllers. The Les Paul controller was packaged with the Wii, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 versions of Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock.
