A guitar battle in Guitar Hero III.
In Guitar Hero, a Guitar Battle is a competition between two players or a player and a computer player. In Guitar Hero III, the players use power-ups to make their opponent miss. In Career Mode, the player faces Tom Morello (Mitch's Moose Lounge), Slash (Shanker's Island), and Lou (Lou's Inferno).
There is a Guitar Battle against Joe Perry in Guitar Hero: Aerosmith. It is played at the end of Career Mode, and, upon beating it, Joe Perry is unlocked as a playable character
In Guitar Hero World Tour, the format of the guitar battle format was changed. Power ups no longer appear. Instead, the player tries to bring the crowd meter all the way to their side, somewhat like the original Face-Off and Pro Face-Off modes.The two battles in World tour are against Zakk Wylde and Ted Nugent. However, Battle Mode is still available as a Vs. gametype.
