    Rusty looks great! I'm about to build a white Hetfield inspired Explorer myself! I'm torn between Master of Puppets and Ride the Lightning as far as my favorite album of all time, I can't decide between the two. That said, I also love St Anger and Death Magnetic is way under rated. Also Garage Inc. has some killer tracks, especially on the 2nd disk. Greatest rock band ever. Great channel, keep up the good work.

Disposable Heroes is the ultimate metal epic. Hetfield's unstoppable right hand, one of the key ingredients of the greatest metal album of them all.
    Great job on the guitar, Rusty looks great. You are talented. Now I want an Explorer.

    In the future if you need a rustlike finish, try Brownells gun parts. Before we blued firearms, we browned them, wich is essentially rusting them in stages till you have a protective finish. I'm not familiar with the process, but Brownells sure is and they have anything you'd need to do it several times over for sale anytime. Just a thought..

    You should do more latching killswitches to SWITCH things up a bit. They're nice as a mute when changing guitars live. You could also do latching switches for coil taps or pick up switching. I'd be interested to see if you could wire up the momentary killswitch to jump between the neck and bridge pickup rapidly to see what that might sound like.

    I'm HUGE Cliff Burton fan and I started playing music because his bass playing inspired me when I was a kid. I was 5 when Kill em All released, I remember asking my mom if I could order it out of Columbia-House when I saw their picture they looked so cool and heavy metal lol. But my absolute favorite album is Garage days Re-Revisited. The songs they covered were so good! They made them their own. How many of you remember Columbia-House? You could order 15 cassettes for a penny but then they would get you on the back end pretty good lol. But you could come up with some good fake names and order the albums and have them sent to a friend's house and end up getting the albums for free. But kids that's dishonest.
