What is Kirk Hammett?

Guitarist for metal band metallica. Started guitar at age 15 playing in a few bands, most famous are probably exodus, he then was asked to join metallica.

A famous guitarist in the metal world, even though he isn't very impressive, most of his guitar solos are very average and he is praised only because metallica are the most famous metal band.

For some other better metal guitarists, listen to marty friedman or dimebag darrell

Kirk Hammett - what does it mean?

Most overrated guitarist in history. Plenty of speed but no substance. His phrasing is a joke, his vibrato nervous and grating. He is also incapable of bending a note in tune.

Replaced the infinitely superior Dave Mustaine in the early days of Metallica.

Beloved by those who have no imagination or are tone deaf.

"I have perfect pitch so listening to a Kirk Hammett solo is like nails on a blackboard."

Kirk Hammett - meaning

Guitarist in Metallica.

The guy loves his pentatonics and wah FAR too much.
Somebody slap the silly weapon and tell him to turn off the wah.

Listen to Eryk Ferenc who is miles better than Kirk Hammett

Kirk Hammett - definition

what words are there to not describe kirk as one of the greatest guitarist of all time? Kirk has lightining fast fingers, and the solos he does astounds everyone (guitarists and non-guitarists alike). Starting at 15, he had a fender in '78, then wanting to get a Gibson Flying V ('84). He wanted that Gibson so bad he took shifts at Burger King to pay for it.
Then in April of 1983, Kirk received a call from Metallica because they were firing Dave Mustaine. So Kirk got his money and left California for the first time to arrive at New York. He auditioned and thus began Kirk's career as lead guitar in Metallica.

Kirk Hammett's solos will blow your fucking head due to sheer amazment.

Kirk Hammett

1) One who has mastered pentatonic scales and can blow your mind with them.

2) Metallica's Lead Guitarist that has composed some pretty amazing solos to date. Things that make him happy include pentatonic scales and wah wah pedals. And don't forget his stuffed two headed sheep and his thrash metal!

Man... That Kirk Hammett is blowing my mind. I wish he would stop using those Em Pentatonic scales/
