    To do this, you can either buy all 3 Guitar books (which'll rank you up to level 9) and/or buy a guitar ($600) and keep practicing on that.
    If you use the 3 books, you can only level up to level 9, so you will have to purchase the guitar anyway.

    ItsPizzaTime69Kay, so turned out I was not properly signed in and got the achievements after I signed into xbox live. Anyone having issues getting achievements to pop in this game may want to save and close the game entirely (by quitting the game on the home screen) and the re-launching it.

    evorgnayrif just looking for the achievement itself, the sims 4 community has families you can download from the gallery that already have maxed out guitar skill (or just about to reach it), so that is the quickest option available

    Well, in addition to what was provided by the other guide (using books), you can also cheat your way into grinding this skill.

    So, to do that,you need to do the following :
    Step 1 : Press cn_LTcn_LBcn_RBcn_RT, it should open a command box on the top left corner of your screen, press cn_A
    Step 2 : Type the following into your command box Traits.equip_trait SteelBladder and then press Start to gain the trait SteelBladder.
    Step 3 : Now repeat step 2 but instead of SteelBladder, enter the following traits :
    Needs traits : NeverWeary (Energy need never decrease), ForeverFresh (Hygiene need never decrease), ForeverFull(Hunger need never decrease), NeedsNoOne (Social need never decrease). The only need that will keep going down, depending on the skill you're mastering is the "Fun" one.
    Useful traits : Savant (Helps learn skills faster), MorningSim (Helps learn skills faster in the morning)/NightOwl (Helps learn skills faster during the night), sadly only one of those two can be picked.
    {I believe I have listed all the traits I used to master my skills but if I forgot some, I will add them later.}

    Once you are done adding all required traits, you can click on a guitar and select "Practice Guitar" and then speed the game on the fastest speed and let your Sim level up its Guitar skill. Thanks to the traits, unless you have a job, you can go from 0 to 10 in one go.
    Yes, its cheap, but since it doesn't disable your achievement, why not?

    Hope it is useful! Please do leave your comments if you have anything to add.
