If I didn't think this was a serious question I wouldn't even answer the damn thing.That's like going back and asking Hendrix if he would rather play pinball.Its apples to oranges.I've never messed around with guitar hero just for the simple fact that I'm a REAL guitarist.Now,the piano(which I learned to play when I was 4 and occasionally play now) doesn't even compare to the guitar.As with an artist your palette is almost limitless with the guitar and as you well know,your limited with the piano and strings(violin,viola,etc...) Leave the guitar hero to the kids in grade-K and to the wanna-be's.Since you read music and you have a good ear it shouldn't be a problem picking up the guitar but...it might be a difficult transition for you simply because you might be stuck in "classical" mode but that's fine because classical guitar shows you a lot.Most of what you find out on the web is in tablature and that's for people who can't read music but I would still start off with a tablature converting program anyways.It takes a midi file and converts it over to music Tab so you can read the notes and key signatures.I recommend guitar pro 5..Pick up a cheap acoustic/electric guitar and maybe a small amp and your good to go.
