How to unlock the Solid Gold, Easy Action! achievement in LEGO Rock Band - Definitive Guide
I would highly suggest using "We Will Rock You" on expert bass. This is by far one of the simplest songs you will find. I guarantee even someone who can only play on medium, maybe even easy, can get it this way.
The song pattern on expert bass is simple.
Green, Green, Orange, pause and repeat.
Eventually it will switch to:
Green, Green, Blue + Orange, pause and repeat.
Once it switches to the orange and blue phrase use your overdrive. It will turn to gold stars before the song even finishes.

thanks a lot Sparky, first EVER time to pass, nevertheless perfect, a song on expert. Having a rock band guitar with frets close together works well.

I beat it 3 times with no cheeve. Now I see it matters when I use my overdrive. I will have to try it again.

Sparky is right (We will rock you on expert bass), but to reiterate, you cannot use overdrive/star power till you hit the double orange/blue; the first time i tried i skipped over this part and used star power normally but even with a perfect you only get five stars. You must save your overdrive! till the first double cord and if you do, you should get gold star about 3 or 4 lines from the end.
And just a normal bit of advice, use the shifting technique instead of the reaching technique. Since its a straight forward pattern, its easier to just shift your whole hand to the orange rather than trying to reach for it. Btw if you have short fingers, you pretty much have to use this technique.
And lastly the shift from just orange to orange blue happens at a rather obvious point, you can tell by the music that its going to shift, the held whiny guitar note is the signal that that part is coming.
But overall props to sparkyMP on this one, my level is i can maybe do a couple of songs on hard, but i got it with what i would call relative ease.

There are three songs which you should try. The first of which is 'We Will Rock You'; a song on the disc, which repeats the same basic pattern throughout the song.
The other two songs you should try are both Free downloads. They are 'Charlene (I'm Right Behind You)' by Stephen and The Colberts, and 'Still Alive' by GLaDOS.
Here are example gold stars for all three songs, all on Expert Bass.

I got this and the Flawless Singing achievement at the same time singing "Dawn Patrol" by Megadeth on Expert Vocals as it contains only talkie parts (no pitch requirement).
Just be sure NOT to activate your overdrive early. Wait until the part that goes "Pretending not to notice..." to activate overdrive (scream into the microphone).
You should end up with (or close to) 90,000 points and 5 gold stars!
Download links:
"Dawn Patrol" by Megadeth (single)
OR
Rust in Peace (Album) (avoid downloading the album as ONLY "Dawn Patrol" and "Hangar 18" are compatible with LEGO Rock Band)

"Song 2" by Blur has a very simple pattern on expert bass and is the same length as "We Will Rock You" by Queen, and it also has short breaks in between chorus' so you can get your hands ready for the next section. Not too hard at all, and found it to be more fun than Queen :)
Alternatively you can do this on Guitar on Im gone im going by Lesley Roy but this is a downloaded song which i think you get by purchasing Rock Band 2 and get a code with it.
Also aswell as this achievement on this song, i also got "Brian MAY be jealous" and "Flawless Fretwork" achievements.

The easiest is to play We Will Rock you on expert Bass. There are a total of 5 star powers in the song. After the first 2, use star power. DON'T USE STAR POWER AFTER THE NEXT 2. Wait until you get the next 3 and then use star power. Hit 100% all the notes and you will get gold stars.
Gold Starring is getting 6/5 stars. It means gaining a whole extra song after a 5 star. Expert must be played. Play Charlene on Expert Bass. After the second star power, use it. You wont have it go away the rest of the song easily netting you this gold star. Below is a video showing you where to go, etc. and how easy this song really is. Again, a free download on Xbox Live Marketplace.
