How good of a guitarist is Kirk Hammett?

I just got my first guitar, so I’m still naive when it comes to knowledge of the instrument. I see people will shit on Kirk because he uses a wah pedal, but he sounds good to me. Is he actually a β€œbad” guitarist, or is he actually really good? Wrong subreddit to post on if i wanted unbiased results tho lol.

I'm a left handed guitarist. I always wanted the Kirk Hammett Ouija Guitar but ESP doesn't make that guitar for the left handed. You guys have any idea on what are the other ways in which I can get a guitar like that?

Curveball: TIL Kirk Hammett did a Dance Music song with Orbital called SATAN in 1997

Today I learned that Kirk Hammett provided the guitars for the Orbital track SATAN which featured on the soundtrack for the movie SPAWN.

Sharing with you because I found it interesting and thought you might too. Mods: If it's old news, pls delet.

It's pretty good. I suppose it would be, really. Bit of a curveball but worth your time if you're a fan of Kirk's playing:

https://youtu.be/tP8tpAs9qhI

Orbital are a well known and prominent English Techno/Electronic music duo (brothers, actually) who have produced a lot of very popular material over the years. Chime is probably their most famous track.

Discogs: https://www.discogs.com/release/15884-Orbital-Satan

The song was produced by Graeme Revell who produced all kinds of movie soundtracks including Street Fighter, The Crow, No Escape, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Boxing Helena, Daredevil and more...

That's all. Have fun!

Kirk Hammett Guitar Center riff?

I've been wondering what song kirk is playing at the beginning of the guitar center video. It sounds familiar but me and a couple friends were unable to identify it. I would assume it's not in any song, but he says that he hopes he gets it right every time they play it, which makes it seem like they play it live frequently. Any clue what song it's from?

Kirk hammett wah vs regular

I’m in the market for a wah pedal and I can’t decide if I should get the Kirk hammett signature pedal or just a normal one. I want to play Metallica and have kirks tone but do I need his pedal to get it or will a regular one work fine? Is his pedal worth the extra money?
