I used to love teaching back in the days when students believed they needed you, We had 50 students a week.  It slowly died out in the mid- 2000's.  Now they get it all for free with U-Tubes. But the danger there is no one to correct developing bad habits.

IMO, Trying to emulate a guitar can be more tedious than actually learning to play one.   
 
Consider getting a guitar and start by playing/recording simple things in short bits.
As you get better, you'll be able to play more consistent and more complicated parts.
Otherwise, I'd take Beep's advice and collaborate with a real guitar player.
 
 
 

Hey Jim, Good to see you here.

Check this out. It's pretty amazing.

I'm surprised Craig Anderton hasn't chimed in on this thread. Seems like it'd be right up his alley.
 
Doesn't DimPro have a muted patch? I know with Slayer you can just dial it in with automation. 

I remember this guy... Sam-itar (IIRC) who won Keyboard Magazine's sound-page contest.
The guy pulled off some cool sounding licks.
 
I spend a lot of hours doing tedious things... 
Even though my guitar chops aren't stellar, the immediacy is a nice change of pace.
 
On a lighter side:
I remember watching my Ex's son spend hours playing Guitar Hero (trying to master the tunes).
Thought that was just crazy!  The time he spent playing with that toy... he could have learned to play a real instrument.

Hey Steve,
 
Good to see a long-time familiar face!  
Yeah, I agree that electri6ity is quite an accomplishment.

I use MusicLab's RealStrat and RealLPC all the time.  (And if you know how to play guitar, you can make the parts very realistic.  Understanding guitar helps immensely, even if your skill is not great.)
 
I have Electr6ity and have never used it on a record and am going to move it off to external storage to save disc space.  It does have an impressive sample set, but I find it frustrating to use, and the latency is a problem.  The MusicLab products are much easier to use and have better features.  In particular, they share RealGuitar's strumming algorithms so you can easily switch between solo, rhythm, finger picking, or whatever.  Although the manuals are not the best, the online forums and videos and excellent.

 
When my old roommates used to play it I would be the grumpy guy on the left. I got pretty much the same reaction.

2 Words..... Theodore Krueger.
 
He was able to produce some incredible sounding (and very realistic) metal guitar tracks using Sonar's PRV (really old version of Sonar), Kontact and a free library called Yamaha Pacifica.

Better yet, see this lesson on how it does it with a different library... still on an old version of Sonar.

The sounds are available even if people don't believe they are.... but it's not easy to catch the feel via midi. Learning to program the PRV the way he does would likely take longer than learning the instrument.
