I read somewhere its a custom engine, I also read they did GH1 (and previous Harmonix games) by hand!

 

I think the best way of enquiring about the software used to make guitar hero would be to look towards the finnish alternative 'Frets on Fire' as this is a PC clone and is open source, so they're basically more relaxed in regards to software they used etc.

If I'm not mistaken, I think the clone was written in Python using cross platform modules called Pygame.
I don't know a great deal about programming so could be wrong here

HTH anyway

Apparantly - The core gameplay of the Guitar Hero games is a rhythm game similar to Harmonix's previous music games such as Frequency and Amplitude.
