Guitar Hero II Monkey Wrench walkthrough for all difficulties, including tips for Expert GO chords and Hard difficulty strategies.

Easy Difficulty: Most of this song consists of quarter notes. Focus on finding the beat, and the song should be straightforward. There are a few off-beat notes, but they are not numerous enough to cause failure.

Medium Difficulty: Monkey Wrench begins with many eighth notes and a guitar line that closely mimics a real guitar part. Approximately 75% of the song features the first and second verses, choruses, and guitar hooks, which are nearly identical.

Hard Difficulty: This song is a good opportunity for high scores, potentially over 250,000 points, if you are proficient with chords. The opening line and its repetitions are the most challenging parts. The six notes at the end can be tricky for counting. Save your Star Power for the choruses or the extended vocal break.

Expert Difficulty: This difficulty features three guitar hooks and includes GO chords. You will play a descending chord line shifted on RYBO. After the GO chords, shift your pinky left to finish the phrase, or stay at RYBO and stretch to G for an easier approach. After finishing the phrase, use HO/PO to allow time to reposition your hand. With two chords per beat, failure is unlikely. When the singer shouts, the GY-RY-GY chords you've encountered throughout the song invert to RY-GY-RY. Achieving over 300,000 points was necessary for 5 stars.

Tips
  • On Hard, save Star Power for choruses or the extended vocal break.
  • On Expert, use HO/PO to reposition your hand after the descending chord line.
  • On Expert, consider stretching to G from RYBO for the descending chord line.
