@@zarahnator7764 Come back when you know the difference between the shape and feel of a guitar.

I own 10 guitars ( you need different tunings, different gauges, diff types of strings ) because of my little home studio. And each neck size, neck thickness, how the frets are leveled, fret curvature/radius, shape, balance etc all of these are diff on each guitar. Comes down to ergonomics, hand size etc but yeah even Hetfield knows there’s “something about that guitar” that’s more comfortable for down picking, alt picking etc For example an esp or jackson neck is so much more thin on the back and the fret wires are more flat, while the strat has a higher radius (curvature). This makes the strings fret out (and stop ringing) when you bend them if you don’t have a medium to high action. While the flatter radius guitar can do that on lower actions. Cheers fellow tone seekers

Love the behind the scenes stuff. Reminds me how I still know every word to Cliff 'em all and Year and a Half.

As a guitar player with 7-8 guitars I use (obviously no where near as good as him) I completely understand. Certain guitars just have certain feels for certain songs. Especially if you’re using different strings on different guitars. I noticed how he picked up his white V to get that old school metal feeling. Playing Sad but true on my black explorer feels a lot different than it does on my white SG.

The only riff I've noticed I can't play on another guitar is the intro to cowboys from hell, my hands get confused and the picking feels off unless it's on a Floyd rose

It's like playing concert pianist music on a keyboard. It evokes the same feeling. It just hurts your brain. We know you can do it. We just don't want to. It feels bad.

This also includes songs that already had lower tunings to begin with like Sad But True, All Nightmare Long, and anything off St. Anger. If I remember correctly, the reason for it is for James to not strain himself on vocals night after night and also because.. lower tunings are heavier lol
