Step 1: Play the Journey:
As you go through the Journey, you'll gain more experience and RSP (RockSmith Points). You'll need to play all the songs to find one that you can memorize for step number two. Playing through the entire journey will likely rank you up several times (earning you the associated achievements) and a few other miscellaneous achievements
Pause Method:
There is a method that helps make this easier for some people - if you pause the game to view upcoming notes, you can brace yourself for them better, thus helping you hit notes easier when you resume the game. We'll call this the pause method and refer to it when relevant in the guide below.
Step 2: Master a Song:
Pick a song that's short and easy for you to memorize (see the guide below for some recommendations). You need to memorize an entire song if you want to have the two achievements ("OK I Learned" and "Stage Ready"). This will be similar to a normal song, but all of the notes are invisible
Step 3:Guitarcade Games:
This is where you'll be spending a majority of your time in the game. You get one achievement per arcade game for just playing and another for beating a high score (which is usually very high and very hard to do). Take your time, learn the techniques the game is trying to teach you, and keep trying.
Step 4: Multiplayer:
Find a friend to play this game with. They must have their own cable and guitar. Doing so will earn you "Beneficial Friends."
Step 5: Wrap-Up:
Use the guide below to finish any other miscellaneous achievements you don't have at this point.
Conclusion:
Overall, this is a very good game. Getting a 1K on this game is as difficult as trying to master an instrument, however. Be patient and practice, and you'll get this eventually. Happy guitar-ing!
DLC: Bass Expansion
(Full G&RM Located Here)
Overview:
Welcome to the Bass Expansion DLC for Rocksmith! All of the achievements in the DLC are mirrors of main game achievements. The good news is that this DLC doesn't have any arcade games or mode, meaning that your completion here will be significantly easier (though still take quite a while or take a large amount of skill due to "Rumblesmith"). Without further adieu, let's jump in!
Step 1: The Quickies:
By simply playing through the game through the first event with a guitar (instead of bass), you'll net "Bass Camp," "Databass," and "The Bottom Line."
Step 2: Score/Challenges:
Now you'll move into more difficult waters. There are three things you'll want to do here:
- "Bass Face" - Earn 100,000 points on a bass arrangement.
- "Ace of Bass" - Get Gold on all of the tutorial challenges.
- "Bass Head" - Collect all gear.
Do these in whichever order you want, but I ordered them by approximate difficulty.
Step 3: Rumblesmith:
Your only remaining achievement will be "Rumblesmith" - which is not difficult, but will require a lot of grinding unfortunately. Use the guide for the "Rocksmith" achievement from the main game to help get this as quickly as possible.
Conclusion:
Congratulations on an additional 250in Rocksmith!
