While it's been said that DJ Hero will allow players to use guitar hero guitars, Activision stated that they might allow reverse compatibility. That is, allowing the turntable peripheral from DJ Hero to be used in Guitar Hero. While it may be too late to implement this feature in Guitar Hero 5, Activision are looking into this for future versions.

With guitar support already confirmed for DJ Hero, the newest addition to Activision's gaming setlist could now return the favour, with Guitar Hero developer Neversoft revealing its desire to build the turntable controller into the GH experience.

"We've worked with [DJ Hero creator FreeStyleGames], talked to them about the game for a couple of years now, looked at different builds and played it," GH director Brian Bright told Eurogamer TV. "We would love to integrate in the future."

Bright admitted, however, that release dates did not allow the team to include the option in the latest major Guitar Hero update. "Unfortunately for Guitar Hero 5, we ship a few months before they do. [But] we'd love to explore instrument compatibility in the future; we'll see where it goes."
