      @@Jared_Dill I did like to play on a wine red model at my local guitar store but if I ever payed that kind of money it has to be black with blacked out hardware. I used to have a cheap copy years back that had a really cheap burst on it. I put electrical tap all over the top which looked pretty cool I have to be honest and then I would play Fade to Black on it all the time mimicking the Cunning Stunts performance lol. A few years back I bought a used Epiphone Lp standard because it was only $200 but i sold it after a few months because i wasn’t crazy about it, just never felt right to me. Since then I’ve sworn off LPs.

    You might already know this but that’s not him on Kill ‘Em All, it might be him tracking. But Dave Mustaine wrote most of the first album. He’s only credited with 4 of the 10 tracks but all of Kirk’s riffs were written by him. And the on the second album he’s credited with at least two songs, so Kirk is just kind of playing what’s on the demos on the first two albums…

    No disrespect to the channel, Kirk nor Metallica. But is it me, or is Kirk's playing getting sloppier? Not only that, but he seems a tad - how do I say this respectfully - 'slurry' in interviews? I dunno, man, for someone that's teetotal and surfs often, he comes across a tad impaired.
    Massive caveat: I really like Metallica and have an awful lot of respect for Kirk - sincerely. This is a genuine query, as a fan of both the band and the legend that is KH.
    P.S. his black LP Custom is one of my Al time favourite axe owned/used by a pro.
