I've only ever played with classical guitarists, who were just as experienced with music theory and such as I am. But of course classical guitar is a completely different style than say, Jethro Tull (because that's all that comes to mind here too). But it's worth a try though, both the flute and guitar are tuned in C. Just keep in mind that the key of E major is a horrible key on flute. It's really hard to play in E major, and although guitarists like it because there's a lot of open chords and it's a relatively easy key to play in, flutes don't like it!
