Just watching it again and Kirk seems like hes completely stoned.

Also he doesnt mention the built in tubescreamer circuit and all of the various Eq options and whatnot on this vid so im gonna try find the other one.

I remember a Hammet signature wah. Someone posted a picture of but I can't find it.

It had a sneaker attached to it and no off switch.

Ugh don't get me started on Hammet :shock: I think its impossible for him to play a solo without a wah pedal.

I heard once they locked his wah away in a metallica-proof box and he still played a solo that was 100% wah wankage.

As they say...wah is all in the fingers

There are no solos worth mentioning on Death Magnetic, tbh. Christ, *even I* can play solos better than some of those efforts! It's almost like Lars said "don't bother putting that final take on, we'll go with the first one that was all boring and had lots of phrases starting and finishing on the tonic. Then we'll EQ the **** out of it, like I did with my wonderful drums."

Other than that, I really like the album, but the lead work (and drum EQ) is a real let down for me, personally.

Do you mean the actual distortion on the drums? listen my judas clip tone test in the players section i used the stem files from the guitar hero version of DM and the drums arent distorted at all. I believe it was just a side effect of the shitety brickwalling.

Cant be a hammet wah.

Theres no surgery kit to graft it onto your foot.

Any true hammet wah would have to have a portion of it replace much of your foot to properly integrate with your body. It would be called the metawahsal.
