Is no one else gonna talk about how clean the transition was between Master of Puppets and Harvester of Sorrow?
Yeah, I noticed that one, too! Lololol.
Lol mediocore at best.
Well you see, Master of Puppets is in Standard E tuning when Harvester of Sorrow is in Drop D. SO, he would have had to cut it unless there is a setting in the HeadRush which he may or may not have where you can change tunings.
🤔
Oh, my bad I just checked on Songsterr.com (use it it's amazing!) it's the thing that should not be which is drop D he just needed to have a HeadRush to change effect settings.
everything here is clean
I thought the title said metal riffs and I was like “damn, there a fuck ton of Metallica on here.”
Hahaha
😂😂😂😂
Me2 xd
actually, that video has been already upload by him xD
As it should be.
When the world needed him most, he came back.
Ah nice avatar change around
I've missed him
The god of Metallica riffs
metallica and avatar. im at home
Funny u said that I was actually watching avatar wen i watched this comment
Sound engineer: How much chorus do you want?
Metallica: Yes.
🤣🤣🤣
Sounds like the car meme where you see an intake with too much nitrous line and it say "how much nitrous are you running ?
:YES.
I love chorus
Check out a ballad version of the song Metal Militia ruclips.net/video/YxyqOE-sukk/видео.html
Top 10 Clean Metallica Riffs
3:15 - Wait thats illegal
I didn't want to leave that part blank so that's why I made it black & white (justifying the distortion)
hhahahaha made my day
Fuck left side
@@justpapy667 Fuck you and fuck right side
Challenge on the play has been overruled
The riff stands 😂
Completely agree with the #1
Call of kthulu is a masterpiece
Thanks to Mustaine
@@andreirus6340 I remember your pp somewhere what is that
@@andreirus6340 true
dave wrote it
@@kaidinaah8210 yes i know i know
5:53 Wow! I was expecting Fade to Black! But no, it's the single most underrated instrumental song in history. This made my day and my week!
Same!!
The bass is insanely powerful in call of ktulu
@@blakeshimp6706 Always gives me goose pimples when i hear it, really love the bass on the song
They don’t play much this song as it was written by Dave Mustaine, but it’s true, what a masterpiece!
@@vicsidrow7744 Mustaine wrote the riff not the song was composed by hetfield and cliff
0:13 The Day That Never Comes
0:31 Master Of Puppets
0:50 Harvester Of Sorrow
1:11 Enter Sandman
1:29 The Thing That Should Not Be
1:46 Nothing Else Matters
2:47 ...And Justice For All
3:34 Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
4:22 One
5:54 The Call Of Ktulu
Fade to black?!?!
@@b3pp332 as the guy who made the video rightly said, thats accoustic, not clean electric. Therefore not a clean electric riff
@@astafire6810 where did he said that? Is not in the title nor the description box
Jonathan Molina it doesn’t fucking matter a clean tone is not an acoustic tone. If you see clean tone it means the clean tone of an electric guitar.
@@peytonmercer2250 hahaha 😄
This guitar is brighter and also cleaner than my future.
You have a very bright future ahead Baris
@@HollyC-ce9ib aww thanks Holly! I wish you the same
Ikr
Deme öyle be abim :(
@@HollyC-ce9ib no we dont XD
My favorite is "To Live is to Die" the slow clean tone riff that comes in half way through the song and played alone then its played over volume swells and lead guitar is awesome.
The one that sounds dry?
I would say to live is to die instead of the thing that should not be
@@luisfahrenholz9105 I’d definitely put To Live is to Die above the Day that Never Comes.
harvester of sorrows is the best, it just gives that “shits about to go down vibes” and same thing with the thing that should not be
and call of ktulu
Pluiskoe it is a somewhat pretty easy song to learn, it’s just the distorted intro that gets people sometimes. And James also plays it closed, instead of hitting the open g string in the second phrase, he hits the 5th fret on the D, but just letting you know and hope you have fun learning iit
He plays it a bit wrong in this. Gotta hit the 5th fret on the d string in it at some point.
He played both of those songs wrong
Shove your "vibes" up your ass!
When The Thing started and stopped right before the heavy part that was like a cruel orgasm denial
I know right… Same with harvester of sorrow
HAHAHAHHA
And you got 69 likes
No one this guy's comment keep it at 69
...Before you comment "WHERES FADE TO BLACK" fade to black is acoustic, not clean electric.
How did I get this tone? Use the same guitar, pickups, strings, pick, amp & effects as James Hetfield

But nothing else matter is also acoustic)
so is nothing else matters
@@colekaplan6241 Nothing Else Matters is definitely an electric guitar
I'm guessing that's also why there was no Battery?
@@wompus6570 no... I'm pretty sure James originally wrote it on acoustic
I will never forget, when I heard my very first Metallica riff ever. It was "...and justice for all". This moment was the start of a new era in my life.
The Sanitarium's riff sounded so fckng beautifull
Ikr 🤘
this man here came back with an explorer great comeback you crazy man also great playing
I guess 2020 has had something good come out if it.
Robert The Guitarist Yep, 2020 has been good! I found a 2006 Epi Explorer 58' reissue, korina body and neck, for 280 bucks and it is the best playing guitar i own......and one of the cheapest, lucky me😂🤘🎸🎸🎸
@@gearViewmirror reverb has Not been so kind, Gothic Epiphone Explorers are Very hard to find and its Rare to find A WORKING One!
0:48 that transition was smooth as butter
You have nailed the hetfield tone it’s genuinely insane how accurate it is
Except nothing else matters
@@krzysztof4607 nothing else matters consists of acoustic and electric guitars combined.
Finaly, someone is playing enter sandman clean riff correctly😂
Right.. I am guilty of playing it wrong for years..
@@yelserpsivle4443 I think a lot of us have, I dont blame you
What would be the wrong way? I'm not sure if I'm doing it right or not.
@@logancuda4624 I suspect that it's in letting the strings ring - many folks don't do that but rather finger individual notes. I could be wrong but that was certainly how I started playing this song years ago. This is the correct way shown in the vid though and you can definitely hear it.
@@spill1t Oh, ok. Thank you. I play with similar fingerings and let most of the strings ring so I wasn't sure if or what I was doing wrong. I guess I was doing a sort of half and half.
Where is: to live is to die?
Man the tone on "The Thing That Should Not Be" was absolutely incredible.
No fade to black? I'm confused.
Acoustic not electric
@@Popo_-tw6nx nothing else matters - acoustic
enter sandman - acoustic
@@user-hc8lj4km4u what are you talking about? Sandman and nothing else matters have electric Guitar with a Chorus, maybe a little kinda acoustic sound from a piezo system
@@user-hc8lj4km4u sandman is not acoustic☠️
@@emmanuelzapatahenao7520 but that part of Nothing Else Matters is acoustic
The tone and production you managed in the distorted part of ..And Justice For All is hugely impressive.
This guy knows about life, plays metallica and has a dragon ball on his desk.
Yeah I know right, what a nerd
Your tones just absolutely perfect man these rifts all hold deep places In my heart, you did them justice
I love your playing... It makes me more chill and feel way better than listening to other guitarists on yt
Cleaner than a bottle of Windex.
First to witness the return of the greatest tech to be on RUclips
We all know how good One and Justice are, but can I say, I like sanitarium the best, probably because the song is very close to my heart and I listen to it when I'm sad, but that clean riff is one of the greatest and most underrated of all time.
Underrated, this was a fantastic video
Ironically one is number two... Its awesome to have you back!
Yesterday I just was searching for metallica riffs, this is just what I needed, perfect
You forgot the riff from To Live Is To Die
To Live Is To Die is acoustic, not clean electric
@@guitarist6494 the interlude is
Guitarist6494 Bruh the interlude riff isn’t. Such a shame
@@guitarist6494 ????????
@@guitarist6494 The interlude is electric
You’re back!!!!!! Great video and great guitar!!!
Oh my god! One of the best videos i've ever seen ❤️
This is so pleasant to listen and watch. Great job!
Awesome job, dude, their clean riffs are just as badass as their heavy riffs (which is why James is one of the best riff writers in rock and metal). Also nice guitar, it definitely seems appropriate for the video
I've always appreciated the fact that you don't post footage of you messing up. You ALWAYS kill it every time you do videos.
Thanks my Guy! Appreciate it!
Nice work and great song choices!🤘🏼
The King has returned!!🤘
Me like

Perfect
The tone of the guitar
Your playing
And that guitar looks SICK
EDIT: wow TNX for all the like
Yeah how do you get that tone? No way it’s just reverb. Gotta be some pedals
@@mikkelhansen3714 chorus and reverb Metallica clean tone is really simple
Χαρης Λεοντιου but the chorus seems so low or is it just me
@@mikkelhansen3714 I don't know i think it has as much chorus as it need
Metallica is awsome🤟
Their riffs are always awsome!
Great video, keep it up 🤙
Im glad to see that your back
call of ktulu being number one made my day such an underrated jem
Me clicks on video

I won’t say this is the greatest come back I have one where he came back after 7 years and he’s still a good YTer still as good as he left
That transition at 50 seconds is actually insane.
Keep up the great work man, I love it! (;

That transition into Harvester of Sorrow was a godsend
Thats a badass guitar and tone!!!

I never realized how beautiful these riffs are
You are awesome man!
the call of ktulu sent some shivers down my spine
Kudos to you for actually playing the '"Enter Sandman" riff correctly
ok that was an awesome return, glad you're back

Love your guitar!!

Thanks Tarek, appreciate the kind words! Just stay persistent and you probably will haha
3:16 A distorted challenger approaches
He is back!
Awesome work mate
Sound engineer: So... How much chorus?
James: EET FUK
The transition from master of puppets to harvest
Great guitar and great video
Awesome looking guitar and perfect tone bravo man :P
Finally someone who plays enter sandman right
I think James play's it the way with the open G string.
ikr
This isn’t how it’s played tho. its played with an open g ringing out
@@tritthemit4168 Incorrect
@@manuelalteneder9087 No he doesn't. Neither live or studio version
Before I came to this video I did say to myself that "the call of ktulu" was the first place
Undoubtedly the best clean song of Metallica
One of my favourite ones overall
Great list dude
I think that you just missed battery
Amazing video
Great guitar and excellent set up.
