Using a guitar on your Xbox Series X/S is possible, especially for games that support musical instruments like guitars. The most popular game series that supports guitars is "Guitar Hero." Here's how you can set up and use a guitar on your Xbox Series X/S:

1. Compatible Guitars:
Ensure you have a compatible guitar controller for Xbox. Guitars from the "Guitar Hero" and "Rock Band" series are popular options. Make sure the guitar you have is specifically designed for use with Xbox consoles.

2. Connect the Guitar:
Guitar controllers typically connect to your Xbox console using a USB receiver or a direct USB connection. Here's how to connect:

a. If using a USB receiver: Plug the USB receiver into an available USB port on your Xbox console. Follow any on-screen instructions to sync the guitar with the receiver.

b. If using a wired connection: Connect the USB cable from the guitar to an available USB port on your Xbox console.

3. Game Compatibility:
Make sure you have a game that supports guitar controllers. Games like "Guitar Hero Live" and various versions of "Rock Band" are examples of games that allow you to use a guitar controller to play along with music.

4. Install Game and Updates:
Install the game on your Xbox Series X/S and make sure it's up to date with any patches or updates.

5. Start the Game:
Start the game that supports guitar controllers. Navigate through the menus to set up the guitar controller as your input device.

6. Sync the Controller:
If prompted, follow the on-screen instructions to sync your guitar controller with the game. This might involve pressing specific buttons on the guitar or using the console's sync button.

7. Calibration:
Calibrate the guitar controller within the game settings. Calibration ensures that your button presses and strums are accurately registered in the game.

8. Start Playing:
Once you're all set up and calibrated, you can start playing the game with the guitar controller. Follow the on-screen cues to strum and press the correct buttons in time with the music.

Xbox 360 is the best console for guitar hero. Has the most games and the best graphics. Also the instruments don't need any dongles.

using that link, i was unable to find any way to purchase the adapter... i also noticed in step 5 that it mentioned that this was for a wireless music controller..... for those who have eyesight problems MY GUITARS ARE NOT WIRELESS. as stated multiple times before... my guitars are wired and windows does recognize them as 360 controllers.

if you have tried different consoles, different TVs, and different games, then i would suggest it may be an issue with the guitar. is it wired or wireless? do you just have one, or multiple? is it happening with all guitars? are you able to borrow one
from someone to test out?

Do you have any wired controllers plugged into the console, like a rock band/guitar hero drum kit or guitar?

Hi, do you have any Rockband or Guitar hero drums/guitars etc or even the Guitar hero live usb dongle? That dongle has been known to cause similar issues when left connected to the Xbox.
