Guitar Lick of The Day:
Kirk Hammett Style
Kirk Hammett's style is in fact heavily inspired by the blues. He claims his goal with his solo approach is to get "a bit bluesier" - and the result is an effective blend of metal, blues and wah-wah driven madness. So this is a very typical Kirk Hammett thing. Two slightly different patterns are combined, and repeated to one's heart's desire.
