Are score playbacks in Concert C pitch?
I am trying to play guitar along with the score, but I am noticing that it is "out-of-tune" with my standard (Concert C) guitar tunning. Is there a way to slow or speed up the score playback so that I can play it against a Concert C pitch score?

But that only changes how notes are displayed it doesn't affect their pitch. If the button is pressed, the notes are displayed at the pitch they sound. If it is not pressed the notes of transposing instruments are displayed at their transposed pitch. A guitar transposes an octave down and therefore the score will show notes an octave lower when the button is pressed than they show when it is not pressed but they will sound the same whatever the state of the button.

To slow down or speed up the playback of the score unhook the Playback panel.
If you want to transpose instead see: https://musescore.org/en/handbook/4/transposition
Is your guitar tuned to A = 440Hz?
If not, then it is "out of tune", but this is not caused by Musescore.
If so, check the sample rate settings on your computer. It should be 44.1kHz.
BTW: Musecore does not change the pitch when you slow down or speed up playback!
