How do freestyle guitar solos work in Rock Band?

In Freestyle Guitar Solos, you earn points and maintain your streak as long as you follow the on-screen cues.

The cues represent an input type, not specific notes, so you can choose which notes to play.
Example: A thick stripe in the center of the track means you should play a single note. The specific note is up to you.

If you are using a guitar without high frets, the game will not require high fret techniques.
Note: Scores from Freestyle Guitar Solos do not upload to leaderboards or contribute to your Rivals Crew.
