Awesome! Do you offer downloadable guitar pro tabs on your patreon for the band solo lessons like Puppets? If so I think I'll subscribe. Thanks!

this is not free, diddy

is it looks like free to you ? xd

They channeled their inner maiden with that melodic break in the middle

[@beanleyhallsworth]

Sure did!

[@MlCHAELHlCKOXFilms]

This solo single handedly got me into metal. I heard it on the radio and was just like.... more of THAT please!

[@marcinmcula99]

0:54 You missed a sixtuplet hammer on pull off at the end of the harmony solo

[@beanleyhallsworth]

Good catch, never noticed that before! I'll update the tab. I only studied the solos for this video, not the interlude 😆

[@lokilaufeyson8683]

what? 😭

[@danielflacoulloa]

heard the solos isolated, never noticed it in 20 years of listening, great catch!

[@asurlaw]

@@beanleyhallsworth how do you stay in tune during unison bends (like the one at bar 12) with a floating trem? looks like a gotoh 510 charvel, do you have a tremol-no installed? cheers

[@n0taguitargod]

Thank you kind sir

This track remains my favourite metal song of all time.

[@linebreaker622]

You are one of the best, man! 🎉🥳

[@EL_DUDERIN0]

Nice. I always loved James' tone so much better on this solo.

[@nunninkav]

One of the most beautiful harmonies ever recorded, on one of the best song written. Master Of Puppets is a flawless masterpiece.

[@duckwithptsd249]

It's James' solos in Master of Puppets and Fight Fire With Fire that make me wish he would just take over for Kirk in some spots, he makes some TASTY shit

[@diegovaldes1408]

He doesn't solo on FFWF wdym lol. Unless you're talking about the guitar harmony part but that's a different thing

[@nishanth6403]

Fight fire with fire harmony gotta be one of the most brilliant pieces of music in a metal song ever

[@siberiaenfhesm]

​@@diegovaldes1408It's not "wdym" it's "wym" and by the way, that harmony was written by Cliff and it's better than the solo

[@nishanth6403]

Lars' drumming and Kirk's picking are a match made in heaven

[@funnrun3399]

Beautiful peavey amp in the background man

[@jimball4901]

I appreciate the breakdown on the 2nd solo. I’ve been trying to tremolo strum the 2nd solo for months and still can’t hit the mark. On the record and isolated audio for lead, all I heard were strums but I slowed your video down as much as possible and will try to play it like you. It looks like you’re hitting B and hammering and pulling from C to B, and then when going E to A, you’re hitting E then A, and pulling back off to E. I hope you see this. The feedback would be awesome but I’m going to be a fan regardless. Thanks for all that you do.

[@adelinabonita9279]

I always had trouble figuring out the picking pattern of the start of kirks solo

[@Noxal99]

0:54 There is a slight difference in bar 22(first few notes, there is a hammer on and pull off) on the album. Whenever I see a cover of this solo, i'm always looking for it but nobody plays it... Am I crazy ?

[@danielflacoulloa]

heard the solos isolated, never noticed it in 20 years of listening, great catch!

[@Vivi_9]

I only ever heard this in the Seattle 89 gig, didn't know it was on the album!

[@rockapartie]

You are not crazy and the version on Songsterr (not affiliated or anything; only know about this site because it has decent tabs for Unlucky Morpheus. Amazing band BTW, check out Black Pentagram, Unending Sorceress and The Black Death Mansion Murders for starters) has the missing notes.

[@Avexer]

0:26 The triplet (19-20-19) is wrong. These frets are representing the notes F# G F#, while in the actual recording it's always been E G E, which in the same hand position are played on the frets 17-20-17.

[@MatthewMezzatesta]

Now it's time to KIRK things up a notch.

[@FloMetalHead]

Awesome! Can you do Afterlife by A7x next? It's hard to find accurate tabs for it, it'd be great to have an accurate version 🤘

[@beanleyhallsworth]

Will do deffo do at some point yet!

[@Jarkko099]

Nice job, good sir! I was curious how you handle the "pull the string off the neck" and it sounded about right here 👍

[@gavinfriel2308]

Great! I just wished you had tabbed out the lower part of the melodic solo

[@KonradDawid]

Will you do the seasons in abbys solos ?

[@Taxable_Trophy]

I never knew that the last bend was on the 23rd fret !

[@leoale1861]

Can you please do " Poison was the cure" tab it's such a fast but really tasty solo

[@thebodychange666]

James solo in TLITD is one of the best in all of metallicas catalogue. This one is fawkin great too, but TLITD is just perfection.

[@laszlozoltanhorvath3242]

Can Somebody please help me to dial in the settings on the Boss Katana's harmony effect for this solo?

[@nick_556]

What do you mean by pull the string off the neck?? How do I get that sound??

[@HippoGuy78]

Great video Mr Beanly

[@praetulitautemodium5847]

Half expected to hear the tornado of souls solo

[@LEE_MILLARD]

James plays the 1st slower solo I believe

[@victorroa3972]

is the really fast run tremolo picking ?

[@designate.]

i’m gonna try learn this wish me luck.

[@SuperRicko85]

Is this Kirk’s or James interlude part?

[@Bellibutton]

Please do Arion - The last of Us solo. So hard to play right.

[@ThatShikushi]

James' solo on this song is fucking great. It's honestly more memorable than most Kirk solos I've heard.

[@andre_stereo]

1:03 is picking alternate or economy bro?

[@SelflessPrincess]

I think is alternate

[@VCR86]

Haven't seen anyone play bar 43 - 45 like that before will give it a gan.

what does the tattoo on your hand mean?

[@FL0RIS0]

Ahhh okay I will play it like this from now on * I can’t even play the intro*

[@coreybrown3572]

I like the folks that have said “well Kirk did this, you missed that”… Really? This was definitely pieced together from dozens of takes, happy accidents, and who knows. It wasn’t written out like a piano song. Dude just grabbed it, shook it and if squealed it was a bonus.

[@JuiceBox-ko5ps]

what guitar is that?

[@werdwerdus]

nice!

[@joepeters5228]

Fuck Kirk!! I wanna hear you do more of Marty's solos

uhhh first time ever seeing a 21/32 bar

[@MorbidGuardian]

A few years ago some youtuber (can't remember who) broke down that single bar since it trips a lot of people up. In a lot of tab books it's written as a bar of 5/8, but if you actually play it as 5/8 it doesn't really fit what the recording. If I remember correctly, the youtuber slowed the track down to count everything out more precisely and came up with 21/32 as the best way to express what Metallica was doing in that bar. Metallica definitely weren't trying to write in 21/32. They just came up with a riff that had a certain feel, liked it, and threw it in MoP. Technically, if you want to tab/notate the song correctly, you need that 21/32 measure.

[@Lewbert]

What the fuck is that last solo. Never realised how fucked it was. Hilarious metre changes

[@thomasdewinter1344]

Amazing. Do you take requests? e.g. One by Metallica? :)

[@lostinpa-dadenduro7555]

I’m pooped this morning. I’m ok. 👍

[@gen-polova]

"the ascending run isn't very precise on the original" as if anything in Hammet's solos was precise

[@Rusli1659LPSoldier]

21/32? after all this time listening this song i thought it was 4/4 transitioned to 1/1 at first.

[@libertarianterminator]

no dislikes my extensions says

[@AxeCraft-Creations]

You kicked me off the live Death show... wtf

[@jordanhasch2544]

They switch from 4/4 to 21/32? Well, no wonder I couldn't get the feel for it the first EIGHT times I played drums to it. Fuck me...

[@ajtf8691]

I can't speak for Metallica, but I would imagine this was a part that got "felt out," rather than intentionally being written in 21/32. Gonna assume there wasn't a whole lot of ProToolery going on when MoP was recorded.

[@fysy9989]

Some transcriptions have it written as 5/8 for simplicity. Some person on youtube measured the exact time and got 21/32, but nobody thinks Lars thought of it that way

[@davidegrisenti975]

We want the solo from Nobody AV7

[@CoolaBoola]

Avenged 7

[@johngutierrez2687]

21/32 as a time signature really means Lars was way off.
