Here are few essential tips that I learnt:

The first thing to get to will be the guitar. There are specialty stores that sell brand new ones while there are also those that are pre-owned. It is advisable to get an old one first to get a feel then just buy a better one later on.

Mastering the Guitar Hero guitar is not that much different than learning how to play a real guitar (of course, learning to play a real guitar is much more complex - but the learning strategies are similar). The most important thing that you can do is slow down. You are training your reflexes and muscles to respond in a very refined and complex manner and you need to make sure that each move that you are learning is perfect. Most of us learn to play guitar (or Guitar Hero) by playing too fast, making lots of mistakes and hoping the these mistakes will eventually just disappear. Well, they won’t! If you are making mistakes while you are playing then that is what you are practicing and learning. You are just getting better at playing your mistakes. For most people, the only way to eliminate the mistakes and play as perfectly as possible is to play slow. Once your muscles begin to memorize the patterns the speed naturally develops. For the most part, you don’t need to work on speed. Work on accuracy and the speed will come effortlessly. Take advantage of the slower tempos in Practice Mode.

Practice Each Hand Separately: You might find it beneficial to try practicing each hand separately. In other words, work on the strumming hand and then work on the fret keys.

The Metronome: Metronomes keep perfect time, something that humans aren’t born with. Use one and you’ll develop a fantastic sense of timing and rhythm. Even more so, you’ll develop your technique to incredible levels. Play scales and exercises with the metronome set a rate at which you make no mistakes. Work on your accuracy - speed is a byproduct of accuracy. Once your comfortable at a speed, increase the rate. Also use metronome to practice music so that they can be played perfectly and easily. It really works like magic! A metronome properly used will be your best friend!

Good Luck!
