Just wanna say your lessons are so great! I'm learning the solo to Metal Militia with your video and its making learning the song a breeze! Great channel and I hope to see some more Metallica and Megadeth content soon! Oh and maybe a lesson for Ozzy's Mr Crowley if you ever decide to do that. :)

I like the way you teach the whole song in detail. Not a partial lesson, a full lesson and an accurate one! Fun to watch too. Always a nice presentation. I'm amazed how these Metallica songs are in Std. tuning. They always sound like they are tuned down to me at first, but they are not. James is the metal riff master!

Tim Holman

3y↑2

Thank you! I agree, I was always surprised that they never tuned down at least half a step too. Over the years they've been tuning lower when playing them live though.

@Tim Holman maybe some Mercyful fate or kind diamond lessons! It’s impossible to find any lessons

Tim Holman

@Randy Gamez Thanks! I think some of their songs would be great to do too. I'll look into some of them.

JenErik🤘

For the B position variation, I keep my ring finger on the 7th fret B when I start the riff because I can simultaneously hold the D5 on the A & D strings with my index and pinky. After that, I barre my index on it because the F5 comes in.

In the morning cafe window quietly flowing, holding an old guitar in my arms and putting the harmonica on my chest, closing my eyes makes me feel comfortable. And when I habitually turn on YouTube, I accidentally come into your video without knowing about it in the videos unfolded by the algorithm, but I am grateful for filling my heart, which I have been tired of since the morning, with warm abundance. This is the most romantic and happy time for me. It would not have been easy, but your passion is great. It will be difficult to know all of your hard work in video production unless anyone does it yourself. Now that there are subscribers like me who love your videos at this time, you are never alone, and you know how brilliantly valuable and beautiful your YouTube life is. The person who is more wonderful than anyone is you who put all your devotion, effort and effort to make this video. As I have been working hard for my dreams, I hope that you will succeed. At the same time, I would like to give my heartfelt praise and support for your channel to develop into a very large channel. Before opening the channel, a good feeling came to the unknown excitement in front of the door. How could you have such a wonderful talent full of strange charms unique to your video? The video I am watching right now is the best and I like it. I apologize if you feel uncomfortable when I write a comment without rudeness at the first meeting.

Tim Holman

Thanks for the heartfelt comment. I appreciate it! 👍

SENSELESS DESTRUCTION

miyako

I've been struggling to play the verse riff for months because when it comes to alternate picking, if i end it on an upstroke and the next note is a downstroke on a higher string i can't hit the string without the pick hitting the string i'm already on. For this song since the verse is alternating between D and A string, doing an upstroke on the A string messes up my downstroke on the D string (also the picking pattern in general is hard for me lol). For other riffs like the Trapped Under Ice main riff and the machine gun riff from One, i can't do 6 chugs on the low E string (which ends on an upstroke) and then do a downstroke on the A string for the 7th note without hitting the low E

Killer tone man! Would love to know what kinda rig you got set up

Tim Holman

Hey man! The tone on this video is a plugin. I used Hellbeast by Audio Assault. It's just my custom Kiesel into it. No other pedals in the chain. When I do mic up an amp I generally use a Marshall JVM. I also get killer tones from Hughes & Kettner Triamp. Sometimes I add a tube screamer to lead sounds but other than wah, delay and reverb I'm usually a guitar into amp kind of player. Nothing fancy I'm afraid just heaps of expensive shit! Lol.

You are so cool. I wish i have that talent. Watching here from NY. Good luck to your channel.

Tim Holman

Thank you! Glad you could stop by. 🤘

huntingpublicnz

It's because Dave mustane help wrote this song when he was still lead guitarist.
That's the big sound difference from kill them all to the rest of their albums

I'm pretty sure James played all downstrokes on the album for the verse riff. I use only downstrokes on it.

I have a quick question about the solo. How do you get the notes at the 19-22 frets to have that sustain or fullness mine always sound muted and dull

Tim Holman

Hi man! Playing a $5k + guitar helps. It plays itself. I just hit a button. Lol. Can you get a good sound when you play slow? If so you just need to practice building speed. If not then you'll need to find what is killing your tone. Make the signal chain as simple as possible i.e. Guitar into amp and experiment until the tone is there.

The only way this would have been more helpful was if you were tuned to 445Hz like the album. Very helpful, though, thanks.

Dave Mustain Solo

Tim Holman

Yes. I think most of the first album was Kirk learning Mustaines leads. The slow interlude part on the Four Horsemen was Kirk's according to interviews that I've read.
