Carne_asaDA Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Please think "guitar playing" and not "Avenged vs. Metallica". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

izzygirl Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 (edited) Kirk Hammet.I was never a Metallica fan, until I saw them in concert. Now, they have all my respect. Edited February 9, 2013 by izzygirl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realpoti Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Kirk sucks. Just like his band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightningBolt Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Probably Gates. Never did like Hammett much. I hardly think Gates is great, but yeah Hammett is pretty bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetness Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 (edited) Not that I care much for either of them anymore but Synyster Gates and it's not even close. Gates could play any Metallica song with ease, Hammet couldn't play any of Gates leads nearly as cleanly or without taking DJ Ashba-esque short cuts.

tr420 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) Im pretty sure Hammet can learn any Avenged solo if he wanted to since I can. I like both but gotta give it to Hammet. I bet it would be too easy for Bumblefoot to even bother trying. Edited February 10, 2013 by tr420 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevelle Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I'm not too sure about Kirk vs. Gates, but Avenged's old drummer The Rev could wipe the fucking floor with Lars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Lahey Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Probably the guy who isn't called Sinister. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majestic Beast Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I don't like the wah wah wah style of Hammet,its a bit boring and tiring ,gates its a good player i think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Kirk is probably better but the wah definitely gets old. Plus, if anything, the wah covers up any sloppy playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeppelin Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I'm not too sure about Kirk vs. Gates, but Avenged's old drummer The Rev could wipe the fucking floor with Lars.Not exactly a big shocking statement, but yes.And Kirk. Yes, he's a bit sloppy these days but he has written some awesome leads. Hetfield should really write the leads these days. His lead guitar work has always been fantastic when he decides to write them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
