There are reportedly about 23 main missions in the story with 30 side missions that the player can optionally take. These are similar to the note-matching aspect of Guitar Hero or Rock Band, and can summon objects, damage enemies or strengthen allies, among other things. The guitar is also able to create various other effects through special guitar solos that Eddie (and certain other characters) can perform.

Upgrades to these tools are found about the world and can also be purchased using in-game currency called Fire Tributes at a Motor Forge. Eddie acquires three tools that are used for combat and transportation: a broad axe called The Separator, his Flying V guitar Clementine from his own world which has the ability to cast magic spells in the heavy metal world, and a hot rod that Eddie builds called the Deuce, a.k.a.
