Guitars in Psytrance: Yes or no?

I'd have to say I'm a pretty big fan of the occasional bit of electric guitar if it suits the song and it sets it apart from other songs (e.g. Sun Project). I know a lot of people really dislike it though so I was wondering what you guys think. Well more specifically I'm talking about Electric guitars not the acoustic stuff in say I volume-Cosmic Tone or Jeenge-Infected mushroom. Although I have to say I really like Acoustic guitars in psytrance tunes too when they fit well.
Some good examples are:
Aries-Talamasca
Aztecs, Mayans and Inca's-1200 mics
Mescaline-1200 mics
Dance of the witches-S.U.N. Project
War dogs-Juno reactor

Haven't really heard any particuly bad examples though.

yes, but only if they are used in a kickass way.

"1200 Mics" absolutely Pwnz with guitars in their mixes.

Very very very rarely. 99.9% of the time guitars cheese up a psy track, especially heavier rock guitars.

See now I actually liked I'm the supervisor a lot (cities of the future is very iffy though... sometimes I think it sounds great other times shitty).

B.P. Empire had the jazzyness combined with the bounce, converting vegetarians had the emotional tunes and I'm the supervisor actually sounds a lot like B.P. empire in a way. I really really hate Vicous Delicous though.

Well, not whole album. One half of the album is psy and the other is mixture of psy with ambient, nu-metal (not sure if this is the right term), rock and hip(trip)-hop. I can see how some people don't like it, but I find it very enjoyable. Not one of the best from them though

Same.. It works on some tracks but i really prefer without, you can make perfectly good psytrance without having to use all kinds of stupid effects, or guitars and what not.
