A guitar specially made and signed by the members of METALLICA will be auctioned on July 2 as part of the the Hollister Independence Rally, a motorcycle event which takes place in Hollister, California. All the money raised through the auction will go to the Help Save the Cancer Kids Foundation.

The nonprofit foundation raises money to directly affect families of children with cancer by helping with car payments, buying laptops, or simply putting food on the table.

alrighty then "Ray", go ahead and play the guitar solo.... in any old metallica song, if you can do it, then you are right, but since there is no chance that you can even try to be like Kirk Hammet, shut up. Anyway, dude i hope that thing is a BC Rich, the only guitars I buy (got a warlock) but i really want that. And since i will be the only Metallica fan when they auction it, i'll have to get that.

Cliff Clapool:
Why did you think they were made in Ethiopia??? lol... wtf? Anyway- I completely agree with you about Metallica! and about your list of sh*t (minus Slipknot).

Those of you who hate the all-mighty Metallica:
I normally couldn't give two sh**s if someone disagrees with me... ya know- everyone has thier own opinion- but it's hard not to care when you're seriously just saying some of the dumbest sh*t I've ever heard... Over-rated??? Whether you like them or not (you're crazy not to), you have to admit they have major skill! ... Just one musician's opinion...

HVYMETAL, I really would stop posting stupid stuff if I were you.
B.C.Rich are not my cup of tea, but do the job pretty well.
But Kirk is not an amazing guitarist. He is good, and I love his work and Metallica, but he is not by any means a great guitarist.
As I said before, I love his work, but even though it sounded great, it's not as hard as it is made up to be. I've been playing bass for over a year and the lead guitarist in my band taught me half the 'One' solo in about ten minutes and the Sanitarium in about 20.
I do love his work but he is over-rated and uses the 'wah' pedal way too much...

Kirk, whether you choose to admit it or not is your problem, is an amazing guitarist especially in tandem with Hetfield who doesn't get enough credit for his guitar ability. Keep in mind, Kirk did learn from the infamous Joe Satriani. The solos for "One" and "Sanitarium (Welcome Home)" don't compare to solos featured on songs like "Jump in the Fire" or "The Four Horsemen", even though those were solos made by Mustaine, kirk plays them damn well.

As I've said and pointed out before, I like Kirk and his work. I'm just stating that he' is very over-rated and should have a 'wah' pedal beat repeatedly over his head. When doing somebody else's solo(or a cover of a song, it's not how good you are, it's how good you sound. I like his work, but he is so over-rated it's not even funny. Mean-while people like Zakk Wylde are only getting the deserved credit for their work now. This time last year I couldn't figure out why nobody was saying Zakk was better than Kirk.
In the band, he's the most stable and sane one of them. I agree with you about James though, the guy is an amazing front-man, excellent rhythm player and can play anything while singing it.

I think Metallica's work is far superior to anything I ever heard Zakk play on, but I have to agree, as far as guitarists go, Zakk blows Kirk out of the water. Kirk is over-rated, over wah-ed and James' rhythms and their songwriting is what makes Metallica so f***ing cool.

If Megadeth wasn't so kickass I'd wish they'd have kept the drunk son-of-a-b****... I mean, the rest of them were sober... right?

Oh and I don't think we'll be meeting again... I was just passing the time til I could find someone much BIGGER and BETTER... I hope you don't have too much trouble finding something small enough to jack off with... I think your hands might be a bit too big... "wouldn't touch my pu**y if I paid you"??? Please, neddle di*k!
