    To start with try Future Tracker. It allows you to sequence samples pretty easily. has some Midi support (Which you'd need for the guitar link) but not much.
    A good way to get hold of some samples to start with is to look for "MODS" - modules are the name these songs usually have, it's a hold over from the amiga days. Just DON'T take your samples from Amiga MODS as they were 8-bit and low frequency. There are plenty of newer PC ones out there. You can save the samples used from each to your own system.

    Midi progs I'm not sure about. Cubasis and Cakewalk are 2 popular big-hitters but they're very expensive, and are aimed at professionals. There are others out there but I don't know how well they stack up. They're not too hard to find, Just do a search for Mods/trackers/Sequencers etc.
