[dgenerationx767]

[VICTORANDGERRY]

NO MAMES ESE MORRILLO ASI COMO LO VEN DE GRANDE VA A SER UNA RIATA PELUDA CON VENAS EN LA GUITARRA

[NumNumEntrails]

'shows how amazing he really is' yea ofc, battery is hard as fuck to play :)

[smacedonio42]

i give him props for that part he did at 1:20 but the rest was pretty bad and don't be a poser!!!!!!!

[TheMetallicaOwnz]

R.I.P headphone users :(

[GuitarRazze]

... he has like distortion on full. when he touches a fret the note rings like 6 hours...

[MardyBum100291]

Wow, 8k ESP and you still can't get a remotely decent tone.

[scudderhead13]

that pisses me off... there is no reason for a child to have an 8000 dollar anything

[scudderhead13]

nice 8000 dollar guitar rich kid... not very rock and roll.

[Powerslave234]

This may not sound good maybe because the camera is not good either.

[alexed18]

usually i don't bash people or the gear they use but dude omg give kirk back his guitar or put it away for a few years

[JamesHetfield202]

i bet kirk is like "what the fuck" 

[limb911]

No,i have nothing else to say

[a7xhillbilly1]

Hey im the guitarest that played in this show.. keep in mind that that was 3 FUCKIN YEARS AGO i sucked ass at guitar and this vid sucks im not gonna lie.. that was my first time on stage.

[mosspaw1229]

hey, at least he's not trying to sing some bullshit justin bieber

[cromaticas]

"and shows how amazing he really is."

are you fucking serious...

[soadhusky]

oh damn its just a lit of shitty sound, its not tight or clean or anything, its just a gain-mess

[MissA7X6661]

I have the same top :3, awesome work too :D

[ElectricDynamite95]

That intro sucked balls

[DrCrazyFishMan]

i think my ears hurt... why have so much distortion!

[CoolKwstas123]

Thats amazing?? what the fuck, go drown motherfucken rich assholes

[Jerikore]

lol nice, now keep in time. Jokes hes alright.

[DerDussel97]

should be called "untalented show" ...

[mmy9af75]

paska



[PassionMetallica]

I think that's not an original ESP Ouija. The back of the neck is black when the back of the original one is natural wood. Then, in some moments, you can notice a small plate on the last fret and the original doesn't have that. That plat is common on the LTDs and there it's written the model (KH-602, Ouija and other). Probably it's a LTD with an ESP sticker on the headstock.

[MrHevari123]

i have that guitar

[jackinho333]

What's with the gain

[football5061]

he can`t keep that guitar

[ShredChannel]

is he playing through a old TV?

[FilipxPoland]

He can have Ouija but never play like piece of hammet ;d

[Stergeman]

Do you reckon he won? ;)

[TheStratomizer]

That was really awful !!!

[fizzyissie]

stop shitting on the parade, and get over it

[ozziskatesthebeans]

What I hate the most?! Is that everyone (not everyone really)that has the good shit and most expensive guitar and what not, CANNOT PLAY FOR SHIT. They can't even stay on a simple fucking beat .

[heartkiller13100]

dude put down that $8,000 or $9,000 dollar guitar and learn from an acoustic first before u pick up a kh ouija guitar and learn how to play their songs CORRECTLY!!

[rafael16081]

,,|,,

[XRKENT]

thats shit, doesnt even sound like the song

[ASPfan420]

Thats a ltd guitar...i dont see the moon and stars az the inlays

[DaveCobain666]

shit! that guitar is too much for that child

[jacksonbaker94]

I'm pretty sure Metallica plays it a little too fast, also. So suck it!

[69TheEvil69]

This guy sux ass and the song is to fast when he plays it,,,

[mac13ane]

fucking spoilt!!

[BlackofAzur]

give me that guitar and go play Xbox !

[MrFraser455]

way too much distortion

[TheThepeter56]

its good but whats with kirks guitar that should of gone to some one that knows how to play better good though

[Pallurinn]

þú ert kuntutussa

[w0mbatina]

wow, this was really bad. 

[LazyGamerMike]

after two years of playing i still had a shit 90 dollar guitar yet he has a ESP KH2 ouija

[TheMikednb]

@LazyGamerMike After 12 years of playing still with Tele squier.. And boss 505

[liorlivyatan]

@LazyGamerMike this is LTD KH-2 OUIJA...

I have ESP Eclipse II VB !!

[supexavi0424]

@LazyGamerMike T.T I know right ! that guitar is freaking pretty! and expensive ! and that kid is using it and he doesn't have talen T.T

[Powerslave234]

@supexavi0424 How the hell could you say he has no talent.

[TimmehTRP]

@LazyGamerMike lol same!

[parets1995]

mereces morir con la guitarra esa esquie que asco te lo juro.

[04046661]

he sucks...... I know i play guitar.....

[Shredder971]

just some kid with rich parents who thinks he can get friends by playing metal and buying a 8000$ guitar

[timoteijedi]

@Shredder971 Dude I dont think these days you`ll get any friends if you listen to metal. You might loose friends if you listen to metal but trust me you wont make new friends if you listen to it. If you want friends listen to Skrillex or shit punk..but not this kind of metal anyway..unfortunately..

[MadDRieK]

C'mon dude when i was 13 i played Seek and Destroy!

[guitarstuffmusic]

the guitar has to much power for him !

[xbeastingx]

too much gain

the rest of it was nice ;)

[XPhantomLord]

MetallicA wouldn't be proud of you...

[stelios103]

he is not able to have this guitar

[luxeano98]

LOL yo tengo 13 y toco mejor que tu e-e

[alfredoxRg]

GIMME THAT GUITAR DAMMIT! >.<!!!!!!

[09rotosound]

with his skills, someone should hand it to a reall guitarist!!

[Megapie678]

how can you guys bag this dude, the only thing wrong with this is that he has the distortion on to much so you cant here the notes properly...

[SAINTWILL123]

must be rich with that guitar. cant play it but.

[FEVERPITCHROCKNROLL]

Poor audience.

[JayComedy350]

quit talkin shit, he's 13, besides i dont see you faggots up there tryin

[JoelNavaOfficial]

Dude seriously, you're embarrassing yourself.

[Lishrhcp7]

Guys seriosly leeave him alone ! he is having a go at something he loves, and i would like to see any of you guys play this song any better and if you did you guys have probaly been playing longer then him. he did really good at this song consedering it is one of metallicas hardest songs to play! Good on ya michael ! Keep playing guitar and dont listen to any of the people top effort man top effort ! :D

[PapaHet91]

this guy does not deserve this guitar..

[Megathrasher1975]

Hey kid don't listen to these dream stealers. We need more metal out there and you are only 13. Let's see ya play this when you are 23 after 10 years. Wish I could of played like you when I was 13. I gave up back then and thought I couldn't play. Now I regret everyday all those years that slipped by. At 36 after playing 3 years, 2 hours a day minimum practice I can only see it as a hobby now. Still at that I love music and playing and will play till I die. Never give up kid! Fuck the haters!

[ochawkbeard]

crap pure crap nuff said

[GanjaPharmzor]

Still better then Kirk.

[erinlynnxo]

About everyone who comments on any video on youtube, is a complete and total asshole. Good talent kid, keep it going and keep practicing and never turn down good criticism.

[7blueblood]

KIRKS OUIJA???

[Ljthepunisher]

All I know is he has a very expensive guitar, and what he played was just noise why are people cheering?

[thehorseman714]

wow dis gu sux ass i mean really h fucked up on presin his distortion pdal.. wha a lame....

[ThePeeraGuitarix]

wow 14 years old with ESP KH2 ouija.

[Cubekiller04]

@ThePeeraGuitarix That's an LTD not ESP.

[slaya56]

@Cubekiller04 LTD is ESP my friend.

[FTWTallica]

@ThePeeraGuitarix when ur parents are ritch, this happens.

[Deceptikon121212]

@ThePeeraGuitarix He stole it simply from Kirk xD

[zekromkeyblade124]

Dude this kid good...the intro needs work but the rest is great

[gmtfender]

that kid knows what hes doing

[anthcybo]

I feel bad for this kid, who would let him go up there and embarrass himself like that?

[3434343432]

not to shabby

[xDJxBEASTx]

these haters need to get off cuz this kid is really good

[brandonpvideos]

I cant even hear what he is playing

[gun25rose]

que asco de cover!!

[rocafella142]

this kid needed some serious back up..... like another guitarist and a bass player

[fireicer]

for a 13 year old playing for 2 years thats not to bad but seriously sort out the pedals. Be interesting to see what pedals he is using.

[UltimateHater666]

Kill yourself.

[flujn8r]

You can afford the Metallica shirt and Kirk Hammet guitar, but not the tablature so you can play it correctly??

[melly12123]

too much distortion man, but UNREAL job(:

[Jamalsish]

gidings me ? signature...

[r1chie311music]

lol if i sucked like him i wouldnt even dare think of doing that...he doesnt even know all the parts and it sounds like shit with one guitar anyway

[Tie4821]

Not sure if this kid knows how much did this guitar cost...

[mitchellrlink]

Holy shit. Your parents must be loaded. I want that guitar.

[Bonnogreen]

Pathetic. This is shit dude. Learn to play.

[virat3]

@Bonnogreen thats dave mustain man

[anippani]

Oh my god, those guys yelling need to shut up. And kid, your good, but I don't think you deserve that guitar though. At this level, you don't need more than cheap First Act guitar. No hard feelings though.

[biebergreysonlovers]

@swordlesslol haha ok ;)

[MetalWar10]

just keep rocken man and don't give up

MetallicA will kick your AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSS \m/

[only1brownmagic]

This sucks

[biebergreysonlovers]

@name58595 really? That was really rude! Would you want someone saying that to you? Yeah exactly I didn't think so. You don't tell people they're terrible at what they love to do, he'll get better anyway. So please don't say things like that!!! Thank you :)

[swordlesslol]

@biebergreysonlovers i would let someone say to me i take it as feedback LOL

[TheSleepyGene]

Omg not to be a troll but when he hit the gain my ears threw up

[IwillbeWaiting]

come on, this is very good for a 13 years old. Tell your friend to keep practicing

[kornfan95336]

Holy Jesus. . I can't even play this god damn song on GH Metallica on Medium with out almost failing. And this kid . .. Bitch!! Keep it up bro. You have a shit load of Talent. I promise if you practice more, and more and more, you will get so far in life.

[raw2is2jose]

i like the part when the kids saying YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH

xDD

[TheMetallica217]

good job man and awesome guitar ithink the distortion sounded good!!!

[cheeriolover101]

God I miss his hair like that :)

[roy1hull]

sorry but hes 12 or what ever and hes been p0laying for 2 years he has a kirk hammet sig guitar isnt this what u woud expext any ways from a kid thats been playing tht long with that thype of gear availble?

[ww2production]

lol the guy saying "Hi youtube" 0:23

[music4ever4me1]

hey i havent seen him in a long time like 2 years i think

[EraOfBloodtv]

For fucks sake learn to use less distortion.

@name98595 I agree, and they think that the more distortion the more metal. Rofl

[WatchPlayDownload]

Intro was completly fucked up. But when he kicked down the distortion, had some true talent there.

[Tie4821]

What the heck, this guitar costs so freaking much, and he could afford it!

[sparkshadowtiger]

All of these people that are commenting saying that you suck are all just fucking jealous because they dont know how to play fucking guitar like you can. Keep it up. Nice cover dude

[Hotdog40404040404]

@sparkshadowtiger he got half of the intro wrong and keeps hitting dead notes...not exactly talented

[cleverusername456]

nice gutiar, im jealous

[superXfanxbox]

Kid finally got laid,lol

[MrGuitarrica]

´For the whole video I was looking at the headstock if it was an ESP version.

Thank god not, it's an LTD. Still too good guitar for an eight year old.

I have been playing for 3 years and I have an ESP KH-2.(Not an LTD model)

You can go check out my videos and see if I deserve it. I think not. =D

But go check out my videos if you see my comment.

[StallionTTT]

That sucked so bad quit the guitar ur garbage

[JerryFeng41]

this kid doesn't suck for his age... it's just that... if you're like 8 and you play pretty well for an 8-year-old, but for the rest of us, you're as crappy as one can get, so just don't play and youtube it at all, save you some hating...

[name98595]

When a little kid plays higher than the 12th fret nobody cares what they play, they just start screaming like they are some sort of miracle child prodigy master. I mean come on, sure he is just a kid but fuck don't build these kids up so much, they end up thinking they're great when in reality they should be preparing for a life of cleaning toilets like this poor fucker. Listen kid, I'll give it to you straight, you suck, so give up any dream you might have about being a rockstar. Think hobby.

[dunavidrava]

@name98595 i totally agree

[dunavidrava]

@name98595 2:35 HAHAHAHHh he just played some random notes..

[thrasherlml]

@name98595 you said but fuck :D

[Guitar4life97]

@name98595 ok, don't you think every guitar player starts this way. from hendrix to kirk hammett every beginner sucks. so yea, he sux now but he is only 13, kirk hammett started at 16 and look at him now. and by the way how does crushing this dreams make you feel any better?....

[name98595]

@Guitar4life97  You totally missed my point, and Kirk Hammett is not great.

[kbdawg1409]

@name98595 are you shitting me kirk hammett is way better than your lousy ass could be, i mean sure this kid is the greatest, but that doesnt give you the right to rip on him, and same goes for kirk hammett dude there is no way in hell anybody could give kirk shit cuz he would rape your sorry little ass with just one note

[MrJustforvids]

@name98595 Like he'd listen to a random guy in the Internet...

[HeavyVerbzz]

@name98595

ur what 11 years old?....stop discouraging the guy....he will only get better....not like ur sorry ass whinning over the internet on ur failed attempt to be a guitarist

[HatFortress2]

@name98595

Don't listen to this faggot.

Musical instruments require practice. Muscle memory is all they are. You clock in enough hours on that thing and you'll get pretty good. You don't? You probably wont be as good. Talent comes moderately into play, but your will to practice is what matters. Don't force yourself though. You shouldn't play music because you want to become a rock star, playing music should be FUN.

[koolkidxc]

@name98595 very well said

[KJBPSkipper]

@name98595 Hey motherfucker,just because you didnt make it.......he still has time to get better...damn you fuckin sore loser.Get over your daddy issues and move on with your life.Evil prick.

[SOB044]

@name98595 youre just a fucking asshole, go clean your own toilet you piece of scum and crawl in.....don't forget to flush!

[rockerdude29]

@name98595 OH MY GOD,thank you...Every time I get on a vid here of some spoiled litter shit with a $1000+ guitar,playing sloppy pentatonic scales,or a shitty riff,and everyones like "HES AMAZING,the next hendrix,hes a prodigy" And Im like,no,they suck,people always get pissed cause im honest.Like that little autistic shit on Ellen that got the $2500 Gibson Es335 for playing 4 chords,What the litteral fuck?

[Darkvalentine333]

@name98595 and thats what everyone says to most of the great guitar players as they are growing up...way to be just like the rest of the music killers

or as we might say, conformist

[xDanEsp]

@name98595 You have it all wrong we should be encouraging the youth to be playing an instrument and telling them there good at it , i means its way better then wasting there life in front of a tv or the game box thing right? Also idk about you man but i didnt start preparing for life at 12 years old and wondering what job i should get in 4 years so give him a break there's no need to be threatened or hate on this kid for doing what he loves doing :)

[eclipse5eddy]

@xDanEsp

You don't tell them they're awesome when they're not so they don't become arrogant cunts, I wouldn't wish upon anyone to be brought up by you.

[xDanEsp]

@eclipse5eddy What makes you think he will turn into an "Arrogant cunt"? Little kids need support and its our job to give it to them not hate on them, keep this in your mind he is only young and young kids deal with criticism allot worst then we do.

[WalkingBoxGamer]

@name98595 How dare you dude. This guy is just a kid. You have no fucking right to tell he won't make it. You sound like an old pissed off hack who never made it. You are a lousy piece of shit.

[WalkingBoxGamer]

Respond to this video... Kid, don't listen to these people who think they have grounds to wreck your confidence. Just keep rocking, you'll get whatever you want to go if you put enough work into it.

[Darek17061]

@name98595 way to crush his dreams you jackass, he's just a kid, he's gona grow up and get better, he's got his whole life ahead of him, who knows what he can achieve, besides its just a stupid talent show, you shouldn't criticize him so hard

[MrCharlie0782]

what a lucky kid to have that guitar... you better keep practicing or im going to your house to take that guitar. you can have my sons series 10!!

[adamwaw131]

To much gain but pretty good...also get the gallops a little better and oh my god hahaha you would be the shit

[WatchPlayDownload]

He has Kirk Hammett's KH2 Ouija :(

[Metallica42497]

i play 10 times better than that kid and i have the shitty guitar that i do, im 13, what the hell

[demerda]

@Metallica42497

Observe how much we all care

[Metallica42497]

@demerda i love you

[hellokittyleslie1]

omg mike!!

[Centahnethebassist]

This kid is 4 and has Kirk's signature guitar?

My fucking ass.

[SORAROX10]

@Centahnethebassist Haha :)

[xxxNickPickxxx]

@Centahnethebassist fucking spoiled children huh? but what do we get fucken shit to work with while they get all this cool shit

[dusted04]
