From the Electra OGV that defined his style, sound, and attitude to the mythical MX guitars, the first in a series of iconic collaborations with ESP, and from his signature Snakebytes through his ambitious projects with renowned luthier Ken Lawrence, James Hetfield shares the emotional and technical elements of the chosen tools that have shaped his singular musical journey, including exotic instruments, vintage Gibsons, and custom one-offs. He also reveals many studio secrets, including the key amplifiers and gear that sculpt his tone and create his sound.
Each featured guitar is accompanied by lush museum-quality portraits by acclaimed photographer Scott Williamson, exhibiting intimate details, one can only see if holding it in their own hands, alongside Hetfield’s deeply personal reminiscence. Spanning more than forty guitars, ranging from the original battle-scarred road warriors to the trusted studio stalwarts and enduring tour favorites, Messengers: The Guitars of James Hetfield is a meticulously crafted coffee table book and a mesmerizing window into the mind and soul of James Hetfield.

Can’t we just get James Hetfield talking about all his gear in a 2+ hour long video ?
Would be great, but now he can sell a book for $80, so why would he do it again for a video?
So good
That sounds like a great isea
Plus- I don’t think he’s a huge gear head as some of the other guys. I think he falls into the camp that considers them tools ya know. Like he doesn’t geek out on them like Kirk does, or Bonamassa etc.
Think of the views it would get!
To be able to shake this man's hand and get this book signed in person...wow. Still a surreal experience.
You got to meet James! That’s fkn amazing.
Wow! Thats so cool!
I hope you told him he could be 150 and those riffs are still delicious, Hetfield will never be out of style
Seeing James talk about the past really touches my heart.The way he describes everything, like a close relative
He really does talk like we’re all friends hanging out.
@@ellechristie1111 Exactly!
This man gave his entire life to this project, and so he is talking about a piece of his life, not about his work.
Love the design on that box
Right!!? It's like a cigar box.
James is a national treasure! Words cannot express how much he and the rest of the band have impacted my life. Call me a fanboy but Metallica is at the peak of my musical mountain.
That’s because Metallica is the best.
They are the mountain. I would not have survived a very hard upbringing in Appalachia, and still now without God, and James Hetfield
I don't even have to tell you how much we love this guy in the rest of the world. Did you mean worldwide treasure? That's more accurate
I look up to James hetfield as a father figure
My sister bought the Black Album the day it was released. I was 15. I had never heard of Metallica. After hearing that Album about 10 times that first week I knew I wanted to play guitar. 32 years later I still play and I owe it all to James Hetfield.
I could feel James missing his brother when he mentioned Cliff. All the love to you James. It's super cool or you to share this amazing collection with the world.
3:18 Hit right in the feels, Rest in Peace, Clifford Lee Burton, you are always with us ❤️🫂
My mom just ordered this for me for Christmas! Yes I’m a 31 year old man lol.
Got my deluxe set last week, very cool book! James's playing and his guitars are what got me into playing and collecting his signature guitars. Big thanks to James putting this out for his fans!
I got a copy in St Louis when they were here and got to meet James. He was a class act and was still smiling after signing hundreds of books that day. Super cool to finally meet a hero of mine! The book itself is great too. Very interesting stuff in there.
Thank you Metallica for helping me with your music as someone who struggles with Cerebral Palsy. Love from England, Paul xxx.
I got mine a couple of weeks ago. To say it's amazing is an understatement. I adore it! ❤
From where?
“A gift from god” is he religious now?
@@emmettogrady3085 That's exactly what I thought when I heard that.
@@emmettogrady3085 has been for awhile, he has a "faith" tattoo that looks like a Ford logo, and a new one that says "Thy Will Not Mine Be Done".
@@emmettogrady3085he literally said that same line in a 2012 interview or some shit
Can’t wait to get the book!!
You truly are an incredible human being, you are an amazing front man and guitarist. I can’t tell you how many times your music and your band has helped me through tough times, and even saved my life. There is no greater honor that I could have, than, owning this book, along with many other memories from Metallica. So thank you once again for this labor of love, it looks insane 🤘🏻 Happy Holidays Papa Het
Love James! Such a humble and cool guy. You guys rocked both Nights in Detroit!
I was there too! Two AWESOME shows. Through The Never was a nice chestnut… The band just keeps on rolling.
@@davidnolte-kn9bl They sure do. They are like a machine.
Look at that cover art. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it's even on hardback!
That White Fang is ALL I’ll ever use…great pick…that and the grey Dunlop, nylon .88
I bought a bunch of those and didn’t like them… glad you did!
I’m 45 years old and I still Love James Hetfield. Get over it!
that is a gem, growing with this man and his band learning to play guitar from watching them listening and reading everything about them I could get my hands on, all the Guitar world interviews over the years, but this one is directly by James himself
Dude has incredible talent but I think why I like him so much are his flaws and his willingness to be open about them. Struggled with the bottle my whole life and his honesty about his struggles has given me so much hope. He's just a one of a kind human being. Thanks for everything Mr. Hetfield. You've left quite a mark on this giant marble
Was the pleasure of a life time meeting James again at the book signing in St. Louis. So much I wish there was time to bs about.
My son Kliff also says thank you for the Guitar pick, James handed him on the rail in Phoenix. Such small interactions for James made life long, treasured memories for my boy and I.
Got to meet James and the rest of the band during a meet and greet in Lubbock, TX back in 2019. A one of a kind human being, I’ll never stop loving Metallica.
Wish I could get the book and meet him and thank him personally for the
Awesome music he has blessed us with
Someone told me I won something to go on telegram but I don't know how to use it I would love to hear if this is true because I love metallica for life 😢and thank GOD for blessing me with the ears to enjoy your music 🎶 you guys are so awesome and may GOD keep blessing you and your families and road crew wish I could have a piece of your history ❤️ I will die a metallica fan you play a important rule in my life
EET FUK is my favorite gutar of all time.
You realise how important this is to you when you've been hearing Het playing those guitars and using those amps all of your life. I even got a thrill and a big smile on my face when he turned to the page with "Eet Fuk". Thank you James for all the great memories. I'm looking forward to you and the guys still making lots more🤘😊🤘
To hear James talk about God is so deep if you know this man’s past with his sister and mother. Amen brother.
Amen! May god bless James, members and fans too
yeah i thought he abandoned all that because of what happened
@@pogsmusicIt may have been said as an expression. It may have been anger at his parent's religion rather than God. Who knows? Who cares? Whatever it is, I think it's fair to say that our metal god seems to be doing just fine, and that's all that matters.
@@PhantomFilmAustralia i agree, as long as its what is best for him
James has always seemed so down to earth despite being a living Icon who wrote one of the best songs ever according to Sir Elton John. Growing up in the 80s and following Metallica since around 85-86 he is like a brother Ive grown up with from a distance. Definitely a VERY cool collectors item!!
He is a living monster of a legend
He's definitely some kind of monster... (sorry lol).
I am from FINLAND - almost other side of our planet and I´ve felt him being my older brother since 80´s also \,,/
Your explorers are what keeps me going to play! When I strap on and play on my own explorers I feel like you and just what to riff!
It´s a big gift to share all this history with your fans 🤘🏼🤘🏼I can not wait for my Messengers Book💪🏼
EET FUK Explorer is my favorite of all time
Received my copy yesterday. It really is a beautiful book, packed with fantastic pictures and stories and all the technical details that us guitar nerds crave. Congrats Jaymz, you absolute legend 🤘
Is there a black ESP explorer in that book that had the headstock broke in February 1993 in Tennessee?
It was repaired in lexington ky at a local guitar shop the afternoon of the rupp arena show that night. I held the body while the owner put pins in it and glued it back. I carried it to the tour managers car and got backstage passes and free tickets to that show.
I was told a roadie dropped it the concert before and that it was James favorite touring guitar.
I wish James had a podcast.
This is the best coffee table book I’ve ever seen 👍🏻
It was awesome to meet you at Left Bank Books in STL!
I have your LTD Truckster. Later on I bought a Gibson Explorer original design from 1984-1989, with the same config that appeared on the Ride the Lightning. You are the reason I play guitar Sir. Thank you for introducing and sharing this gift with me.
There should be a hour long video of this books great contents for those of us who don't have access or can't afford it. Jaymz and Kirk are the reason I love music and play guitar for over 30 years
I gave James an acknowledging head-nod at a brewery in Walnut Creek, CA. in '94. He nodded back. Just to be in the same room as this man was an Honor.
I have to get this book.
What a great way to document Metallica history. Thank you James.
mine is arriving soon, can't wait to dig in! woot woot! thanks papa het! you rock!
A video of james talking? yes please
The Explorers will always be legendary. You made those ultimate.
The difference between Hetfield and a lot of other frontmen is the aspect that he views his talent as a gift from God, not that he himself is the gift. Legend and still incredibly humble!
lollllllllllll
the deer bone skull is my all time favorite
Just reading through that book is sick. I can’t imagine being in James shoes and just walking into a room full of them. That’s gotta be an amazing feeling.
Gift from God indeed James, Amen brother. You are very important to me and my struggle in life with neurological dysfunction and not fitting in and learning to be ok with it; God did the rest but I believe He used you in that, so thank you.
I think I'm going to give this to myself as a Christmas present.
Awesome book. Mines on pre- order and I can wait. I hope Kirk puts together a book with his guitars too.
and Lars wirh his drums :)
Rob Trujillo with his bass or sum
i cant imagine the thoughts running through james head when he sees all of those old pictures from the OG days. I bet its somewhat surreal to see especially with how far and how big metallica became and is still going.
un tesoro ese libro.. sin duda... james siempre sera mi influencia mas grande como guitarrista
pre-ordered it! Can't wait until it arrives in my mailbox
James is absolutely legendary, he’s a national treasure to us!
Thank you Mr. James Hetfield for bringing your book out to share with us your stories of your guitar collection, your amps and etc… with the fans, you are definitely Awesome 😎🤘🏻
❤❤❤❤ thank you so much James Hetfield beautiful book ❤️❤️ you are a beautiful gift ❤️❤️❤️❤️ 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️
I know why the books are so expensive, I just wish they weren't.
So cool.
I just be received my book and it's amazing to have .
One of the best frontman all times🤘
To sit down with James, smoking a cigar, and listening to him just talk music, gear, and life sounds absolutely amazing. My idol and the one who inspired me to play guitar 🤘
This stuff is legendary, keep on bringing 'em PAPA HET \M/.
One of the very first bands that I’ve heard, they were there with me in my bad and good days. Mad respect to our beloved legends🤘🏻❤️
Btw nice Scorpions t shirt🦂
I hope Ken Lawrence guitars are in there! He was a big part of the custom collection
huge chapter on the Ken Lawrence custom guitars.
Just preordered. Thanks james.❤
Love this guitar book, been hoping for a book like this for a long while!!! Thanks James!!
Really wish you would do the "So What" or "More Beer" model with Gibson as a Signature model?? That would be so AMAZING for all of us guitar playing freaks!!
Epic James memories on one book.
Thank you MetallicA to propagate Love & Music for everyone on earth.
So much history in this band rock on metallica 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻😎
James is my hero, such a great guy and incredible inspiration… stay well so we can enjoy you for longer!
amazing art book
I like how the guitar was actually named 'EET FUK'
I saw you play the EET FUK guitar in Halifax Nova Scotia on the Justice Tour in 1989 and my ears are still ringing but seriously it was the best concert I have been to and also one of the best nights of my life! Love you James!
AJFA is the best album ever.
AJFA is the best album ever.
I always remeber seein the 80's Explorers and the little notes like EET FUK on them. I always figured that was how he could tell the white explorers apart, figured he had em with diffferent tuning. I've never seen anything to confirm that it was anything like that tho.
🤘🧙♂🤘
Rich the Ancient Metal Beast
On the way to work and home metallica is all i listen to everyday🤙
Might need to get this book. As a collector (aspiring) I love looking at collections. I got Billy Gibbons book a while back. Some really cool stuff in there.
NIce seeing Metallica doing a unboxing video!
4:20 the young James laughter.
Postman just delivered mine. Going to be some great reading/viewing.🤘🤘🤘
Sold out at $750, crazy. Congrats to everyone who got to purchase one.
Definitely getting this book 😊
His reaction when seeing a picture of Cliff and him 🥺
Oh James! I love you! And your guitars! For the Metallica for 43 years! Thank you! ❤🎸🔥
My girlfriend is getting me a copy of the book for Christmas. I honestly can't wait to read it! I feel like a big kid!
This is such an awesome idea, and book! Can't wait to get a copy someday! Always loved James' guitars, so to hear the stories and get up close pics is really gonna be fun to check out!
He is such an inspiration 🥹💙
Infinite grazie James per la tua musica! \m/
Great post, picking this up asap! Hope it has a page on my favorite guitar, the Green Hot Rod Flame V that was used during the Re-Load album. Haven't seen James use that guitar since then.
cool story about that one in the book. explains why you haven't seen it since.
Thank You so Much James for coming to St. Louis. So glad you signed my book ☺️! It was Awesome 😌!
Wow fuckin' Cool
Want That Book 🤟😎
Tokyo Tapes Shirt rocks 👍
I can't wait to get this book 💜
What a cool book!
James is one of the few or actually the only one who does a band advertisement wearing another band's t-shirt...and he doesn't care and that makes him even bigger :)
"Smells like me" that's funny! Wish I could afford that box set, it's so cool, rock on Mr Hetfield 🤟 Love from 🇨🇦
James, does it include Ktulu Snakebyte? I fell in love with this guitar…
that's a new guitar that came after the book was completed. we would have loved to include it.
@@permutedpress Thank you for letting me know. I will purchase this book anyway. 🙂
I'm impatiently waiting for my book, normally on Amazon in France, it should have been shipped today but I'm waiting 🎵 Looking forward to discovering it 😊
Just pre ordered the book for myself...early Xmas pressie!...
UPDATE!...the book finally arrived...its awesome!
I'm sure he's used to it by now, but as a human it must be weird to think that somebody out there would want your old guitar pick or string, or even to think about all the people that idolize the tone you got for one specific moment in your life.
That snakeskin copperhead Snakebyte he uses is pretty badass looking.
Every time I listen to his isolated guitar riffs from back in the day is just fucking mind blowing just fucking amazing!! James you are not human!! ❤
oh yeah im getting that for sure
James is a legend!! Such a cool laid back guy!!!!👍😎☠️🎸🎵
Love James for years ❤
Вот это я понимаю.. цеховая сольдарность
