In this The Four Horsemen guitar lesson video series, I will show you how to play this metal classic off of Metallica's debut album Kill 'Em All.
We will be using standard tuning just as they did on the original recording.
In the first video lesson, I will show you how to play all of the rhythm guitar parts. Most of these riffs were written by Dave Mustaine before his split with Metallica. There are some really killer riffs as well!
The opening main riff uses a slightly tricky alternate picking technique, but is still pretty easy compared to most of Metallica's guitar work.
Of all of the riffs in the song, the hardest of all is the bridge riff that occurs a couple minutes into the song. You will also hear that riff being played under the second guitar solo.
I will let you know in the video lesson, what the minute and second mark of each new riff is that I am teaching, so you won't get lost.
In the second video, I will tackle Kirk Hammett's first guitar solo. Once again, in interviews, Hetfield and Hammett have stated that Dave Mustaine had most of the solos already worked out. So when Kirk Hammett recorded them, he at least started the solo with Mustaine's part and would then move into doing his own thing. How much of it is written by Mustaine and how much by Hammett is anybody's guess.
This first solo occurs over the slower melodic section that was written after Kirk Hammett joined the band so most likely he is the one that wrote this solo. When Metallica plays "The Four Horsemen" live, they usually omit this melodic section and solo. It is a moderately difficult solo for the first-half, but Kirk really ramps up the speed in the second half. The good thing about these fast sections is that they all contain repeated licks or phrases that can be broken down and practiced easily allowing you to get them up to speed quickly.
In the third and final video lesson, I will take you note-for-note through Kirk Hammett's second guitar solo.
This solo is one of those breakneck speed solos from beginning to end. However, the fast sections once again can be broken down into repeated phrases that will allow you to not only get them up to speed more quickly, but also make them much more easy to memorize. I will show you how to practice them in the video lesson. :)
Good Luck! #thefourhorsemanguitarlesson #metallica #guitarcovers

    I have no idea why anyone would dislike this or any Carl’s videos. Extremely informative, in depth and accurate video lesson, which is completely free to watch at any time. Must be people who are angry because they couldn’t learn the solo.

    I say they should TRY HARDER . it's easy to just give up. FUCK THAT. It's a badass solo as is Mustaines .I got the 1st half down of both of them it's just keeping in time. I used to hate reading and learning tabs now idk I got the K.E.A tab book and its like I can close my eyes and picture Kirk and everyone just playing it nonstop perfecting it the way it is . Shit they did .Why cant I? I get times where it does get redundant so take a break but not a long one . The moment you actually can tell and hear yourself getting better and then play it to someone and they go hell yeah .That is the most baddest ass thing from guitar besides ( feeling ) the music yourself bc now not only feeling it yourself you have somebody else feeling the music too. Rome wasn't built in a day neither was this song or Perfecting it .Shred on ,BECAUSE I DAMN WELL .it's 12:30 am I got stuff to do in the morning and now when I go home I'm tempted to just play what I know .Bc its FUN .and Having FUN IS BADASS JUST LIKE METALLICA AND MUSIC .

    The phrase starting around the 12:00 mark was the hardest for me. There really are no shortcuts to that kind of fast alternate picking across the scale. You just gotta do it and do it and do it and do it and eventually muscle memory makes it effortless. I have found Carl's channel to be the most straightforward, no BS approach to learning those type of licks and getting them up to speed.

    The TAB isn’t correct for many official books including Metallica.. official simply means it is an officially licensed book.. but the band has nothing to do with the transcription... it is as easy as watching them playing it live in many online videos to see that many TABs are incorrect... old Metallica TAB books are notorious for this... I just transcribe it myself and never do any TABS for it since I don’t have the license to legally do TABS
