Ride the Lightning (Metallica) - Solo

Amazing guitar solo by Kirk Hammett. Recorded with : crate 15watt amp, boss gt6 processor, epiphone explorer guitar. Cool.

UPDATE: "I believe this is a Hammett solo since it is more similar in structure and style to fade to black, 1st solo on horsemen and such. If you learn or play any mustaine solo like holy wars and peace sells you will surely notice the difference. Mustaine was credited for the spider riff mainly later to be heard on wake up dead".

Not bad up until about 1:17. Then you just go way off. Nice effort, though, and most of it I thought was pretty good.

@billvladimir4 Play it better.

I think its good. In the end noone can play like KIRK

nice work, could be a little better, i know its hard to hit those higher notes, especialy if you have big fingers, the trick there is to move your finger so that none of it is on the lower fret

@TheDrSNo Surprising it absolutely was Kirk that wrote and layed down this solo. It sounds quite a bit different from most of his solos, so it is pretty surprising. I thought Mustaine must've did this for the longest time, but I've looked into it quite a bit, and there's no doubt in my mind Kirk wrote it. Mustaine has also never taken credit for the solo, and he's the kind of guy who would if he could.
