Video guide:
(Achievement starts at - 1:33)
Al llegar a la granja tendremos dos opciones, seguir el consejo de Leo y capturar a la pareja que ahí vive u optar por la opción de Vincent para que ésta abandone la casa. Tenemos que hacer una de las dos, es indiferente, y el salón de la casa quedará despejado par que podamos explorarlo libremente. Ahí, muy próximo al lugar donde está la pareja durante la cinemática, encontraremos un banjo y un piano. Tanto Leo como Vincent deberán tocar los instrumentos a la vez completando con éxito el minijuego para desbloquear el logro.
When we arrive at the farm we will have two options, follow Leo's advice and capture the couple who lives there or opt for Vincent's option so that they leave the house. We have to do one of the two, it doesn't matter, and the living room of the house will be clear so we can explore it freely. There, very close to the place where the couple is during the cinematic, we will find a banjo and a piano. Both Leo and Vincent must play the instruments at the same time by successfully completing the minigame to unlock the achievement.
Once your in the old couples house, you will see a banjo and a piano next to each other. Have Leo play the banjo and Vincent play the piano, select easy difficulty and follow the button prompts. Once you hit enough of them in succession, a cutscene will start unlocking the trophy for both players.
Here's a visual aid:
Note: Vincent Moretti needs to play the Piano and Leo Caruso needs to play the Banjo.
Chapter Select: Fugitives - Farmstead
Trophy unlocks for both players? Yes
This is trophy can be done after making a choice to either do Vincent's way of releasing the horses or Leo's way of subduing the couple by tying them up. The choice you make won't matter for the trophy, so pick whichever choice you want during your playthrough. After completing the choice that you've selected, you should have the following objectives:
- Change clothes
- Get to truck
Ignore the above objectives and do the all the trophy requirements on this farm.
For this trophy, enter the couples' house and you'll find a banjo and a piano in the living room. You need to have Leo play the Banjo nearby the window and Vincent needs to play the Piano. When you see the difficulty option come up, select "Easy" to make this trophy much easier for yourself. This also applies to your co-op partner. Now both of you will get random sequences of / / . You both need to play the musical instruments at the same time and try to land about 15-20 perfect notes without messing up. If you've both done this correctly, a brief cutscene will happen and both men will play a song together. The trophy will unlock when the cutscene ends. Please see the Timeless Treasure trophy next before you proceed with the current story objective.
If you've fixed the truck to trigger the getaway section, then you've gone too far and will need to use Chapter Select.
Upon reaching the farm, choose either option to get rid of the old people. Now, go to the main room and you'll Leo to interact with the banjo and Vincent to interact with the piano. Select the easy difficulty and have both characters play about 15 notes in a row successfully to trigger a cutscene. Achievement unlocks.

This unlocks during the chapter ‘Fugitives: The Farmstead’.
After taking care of the old couple (either subduing them or distracting them with the horses), enter the house. To the left of the staircase (and right of the solarium) is a piano and to its left is a banjo resting against the wall. Vincent needs to interact with the piano and Leo the banjo.
This is like a Dance Dance Revolution mini-game where you have to press the correct button (, or ) when it passes through the circle. You both need to correctly press the buttons about 20 times in a row and at the same time to trigger a cinematic.
When you pick up the instruments, you have the option to play at a certain difficulty. To make this easy on yourself, select ‘Easy’. Then successfully press the appropriate buttons. When both of you have 20 correct presses at the same time, a short cutscene will play with the two characters playing a song. When it’s over, the achievement will unlock.
Note: As long as you don’t complete the objectives, you have unlimited time to do this. You can also unlock both “Take It For A Spin” and “Timeless Treasure” in this same scene.
This achievement starts at [01:36:30] in Maka’s video walkthrough.
