Personally, I couldn't achieve this on Heart Shaped Box, I've always had a problem with notes in quick succession on GH2- maybe it's me, maybe my controller, but I've never consistently hit all the quick notes on longer runs like in the chorus of that song.

But I did get this achievement easily playing Madhouse (586 notes) on Easy. It suits my style better, and I can play it on a real guitar, so I'm very familiar with it. After just a couple times through, I got the achievement about halfway through the verse after the solo. I also gold starred The Trooper (621 notes) fairly easily as well so that might work if you're having similar problems as I was with the Nirvana song.

You can get both this and the 1000 streak in the same song.
Either try Monkey Wrench on Hard,
Or Free Bird on Medium.

"Sounds tough but if you play the same song as the above all the way through, you'll get this as well.

Heart Shaped Box - Easy
