I looked closer at your chosen style. The notations for your chosen style using powerchords appears to show the guitarist gets it right (so he does know how to play a root/fifth, but the piano player has other things on his mind.

Can you fire (mute) the piano player (or limit his use) and have the guitarist take lead?
