For this achievement you have to complete the guitar career on expert difficulty.
This includes playing and passing every song, completing each poster gig and also passing all of the challenges on expert too.
I wont cover songs/poster gigs because that's straight forward, just pass the song on expert, I will give you guidelines and general tips for the challenges though!
* Poison Notes
In this challenge type you'll have to play the entire song and achieve a certain score while avoiding the poison notes, the poison notes are easy to spot, unlike the standard notes which are coloured around the outside and white on the inside, the poison notes are black on the inside, to make matters worse if you hit 5 poison notes through-out the song you'll automatically fail the challenge, the trick to this is just practice, there's no special secret easy way, you may find it easier to practice on the normal version of the song so that you're used to the note layout without the poison notes added.
The poison note challenges are:
* Falling Away From Me (Debut Album)
* Are You Gonna Be My Girl (Third Album)
* Our Truth (Sixth Album)
* Still Of The Night (Ninth Album)
* Crank It Up
These are by far the easiest of the challenges and shouldn't cause too much hassle for you, you'll start on medium, move on to hard and eventually end up on expert as you play the song.
The crank it up challenges are:
* Dirty Little Secret (Debut Album)
* Dr. Feelgood (Fourth Album)
* The End Of Heartache (Seventh Album)
* Studio Recordings
This is another set of challenges that shouldn't cause you too much trouble, you have to play a small section of the song without missing a single note, it sounds harder then it is, the section you have to play is very small and none of challenges have complicated solos you have to nail!
The studio recordings challenges are:
* Spoonman (Third Album)
* Given In (Fifth Album)
* Walk (Eight Album)
* Pull Me Under (Final Album)
* Band Practice
By far the hardest set of challenges, for these you're required to learn a section of the song by heart, you'll have 2 chances to learn it and then on the third run you'll have to play it without any notes on screen to play by, I don't want to link off to another solution but I wrote a pretty extensive guide to it here Thanks for the Memory in Rock Revolution (EU)
The band practices challenges are:
* Pain (Second Album)
* Paralyzer (Fifth Album)
* Round And Round (Seventh Album)
* Last Resort (Ninth Album)
* In The Zone
For this set of challenges you must hit a set score, now while that may sound easy there's a catch, every time you increase your score multiplier the speed of the song increases and everytime your multiplier drops down so will the speed of the song, however I found that once I'd played the song a few times I knew what to expect and when to do it no matter the speed, so the key to this is just to practice it and keep trying, it's by no means impossible!
The in the zone challenges are:
* Cum On Feel The Noize (Second Album)
* Bad Reputation (Fourth Album)
* Chop Suey! (Eighth Album)
And that's it, that's all I can offer up in terms of advice without making this solution ridiculously long, I know it seems like a silly thing to keep saying but honestly, keep practicing and you will get these challenges done and with them the songs and the poster gigs, you'll get this achievement too!
