Wicked Awesome

This book was a great inspiration to me! It taught me how to play the licks and the different styles of music that Kirk can play. I really enjoyed being able to finally play that solo in one!!

KIRK KICKS SOLID ASS

I play Guitar and Drums and my favorite guitarist in the whole world is Kirk Hammett. He is so good. He learnt from Joe Satriani and as you learn from the best, you become the best. Kirk rocks with solos like "Fade to Black", "Master of Puppets", etc.
