Kirk Hammett gets mad at his amp

I'd hate to see his reaction if his wah-wah pedal wasn't working right.

My wife's friend has a 16 year old son who got a gutiar for christmas. He wants to learn a bunch of metallica songs. He was going on an on about how awesome kirk hammet is and then was getting pissy with me when I didn't agree. Eventually he asked me to name someone better than Kirk Hammet.

I said Kirk Hammet's wah pedal was pretty awesome.

Kirk is a good guitar player. Are there better? Absolutely. His biggest problem is his constant wah-slobbering of every solo. I remember watching the year and a half thing when he is burning through a solo and wondering where the hell it was on the black album. Turns out it's Struggle Within, but he hadn't added the crappy wah to it yet. :)

Doesn't help that he's a wimp and let them completely leave his ass off an album. He's a lead guitarist, with no leads. Not that it would have helped St Anger.
