He's a decent enough lead player.
Hammet still amazes me, the solos in disposable heroes=:eek:

yea he is. he's a lot better than some lead players out there, it's kinda funny.

Hammett's incredilbe. i like that solo but my fav is Fade to Black

Cliff taught him a lot about theory(Hetfield that is)

yea i heard.

it's too bad... i'm a really good guitarist and yet know very little theory

Well, i guess theory isnt everything. You dont have to know it, but its good too

I know next to nothing, but I'm a good guitarist...heh :p

[QUOTE=MasterOfSquirells]just a quick question for anyone who knows... the bit in the solo when kirk makes the guitar scream really high pitched. i know he does it by touchiong th estrings against the pickups on the album, but does anyone know how what he does for that bit when playing live? i think its artificial harmonics somewhere low on the neck, but cant work it out!
thanks![/QUOTE]

You would get a better response in the guitar forum mate, As a drummer, i don't know much about guitars but on my guitar, if i play a string, then tap it over the pickups it makes a totally different sound (I think they are called ghost notes), It could be caused by the whammy bar.... Or possibly a harmonic somwhere on the fretboard... Hope i have helped
I think i know what you mean, but

who knows... the bit in the solo when kirk makes the guitar scream really high pitched

Doesnt really give clues as to which song, album ... ect:

[QUOTE=DisposableHeroes]Well, i guess theory isnt everything. You dont have to know it, but its good too[/QUOTE]

I am an awesome drummer and pretty good guitarist, i dont know much theory, I know how to read drum music/Tab, and Tabs for guitar, a little about harmonics, ect: But i find its the knowledge that is needed to write songs rather than play them.

[QUOTE=gocaps99]Hammett's incredilbe. i like that solo but my fav is Fade to Black[/QUOTE]

that might have more to do with the enitire song than the solo...I know what you mean though. he really makes the solo match the feel and energy of that song. LOVE IT! :smoke:

I would imagine it to be pinch harmonics on the 3rd fret of either the B or e string with a full bend.

I was gonna learn the solo to Disposable Heroes, i didnt spend too much time on it and laziness overcame me

I haven't learned that song yet

Wow, you really are lazy.

/reference to conversation I hope you remember.

yeah, considering that is your username.

*also goes to learn disposable heroes solo*

I'm attempting to play the whole MOP album through on bass. I can get through Sanitarium now.

Remember it i do

I've nearly got the first Orion solo down, piece 'o p[COLOR=White]i[/COLOR]ss

The last solo in Orion is the one I had/having trouble with.

It doesnt look too bad actually from what i remember, though Disposable Heroes is gonna take a while

get the official tab book. i picked up around jan. to learn the leads and have since made my own 4 track analog version of the complete album. anyway, the book can really help. check it.

I tend to use powertab dude, its godly

yea but the official tab books are better. they've got every guitar part played, not just the lead. it's really good

[QUOTE=metalcritter666]1. we've already established this on countless occasions....
2. fantastic, i'm so thrilled.
3. metallica are hideously over-commercialized, but even they realize that at the end of the day its still about the music. do you know how much money they had to put into fighting napster? lars had to sell 100,000s of dollars of his art, which had loads of sentimental value to him...
4. i'd like to see you play battery +20 other songs +drum solos nearly every night for three years. i wouldnt call them arrogant. or pricks. you are a prick.
5. i highly doubt metallica would listen to a f[B]uck[/B] like you. i for one and for that matter most of the people in this thread disagree with you saying metallica should call it quits because no matter what they will always be a highly respected band, as most of the bands you listen too (which are great bands) probably owe their careers to metallica, and st. anger wasnt their strongest point, but it was better than most of the **** out there now.

and could you please have the respect to spell the names of the bands you are championing/slamming correctly?

now f[B]u[/B]ck off. owned[/QUOTE]
