Learning the Hardest Metallica Solo

Continuing my series of learning hard guitar licks and songs, I decided to tackle one of my favorite bands of all time. This blistering solo from the early thrash days of Metallica was not only difficult to learn, it was difficult to hear! The mix of this particular tune made it a bit more challenging to hear some of the articulation of the notes, which is exactly why I love taking on pieces like this–it’s instructive and pushes your ear training to the limit.
