All Metalheads here

LOL... since we're all voicing opinions, as a guitarist myself (not a very good one though) I must say "Hammet SUCKS!"

He has nothing in terms of speed, technique, melody, or anything comparable to the greats. In guitarist circles I think theres some joke about Hammet being Satch's worst pupil; second worst pupil is Slash!

You want to listen to amazing rock/metal guitars?

Joe Satriani (everything, usually slower and more melodious, but with amazing techniques)
John Petrucci (Speed and melody)
Steve Vai (crazy techniques -- look for his three-stock guitar solo)
Paul Gilbert (again speed, melody, techniques)
Reb Beach (listen to black magic)
Van Halen (for those into 80s style leads)
Yngwie Malmsteen (who is fast, but quite classical and boring at times)

Insane?
Michael Angelo Batio (double stocks like you've never seen used before)
The Great Kat (crazy classical-shred woman)

A very special mention goes to:
Jason Becker - a true guitar hero!
*en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Becker


Of course I don't expect people to agree, but here's my 2 cents worth anyway!

Hammett may have gone bad due to old age, but seriously, he IS one of the best. I can easily put him in the world's top 30 list.

Though Jimi Hendrix gets my approval for being both a geeky electronic expert(inventer of hard rock amps) and for being one WILD guitarist.
Have you ever heard Jimmi Page of Led Zeppelin and Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath ?(he is a lefty like me) what about Randy Rhoads ? they can play songs in many different ways.

And as you are a guitarist, why not give some "samples" here ?:D

and please suggest me a good amp software, where I can plug an accoustic guitar(with a pickup) and play away while it takes care of all the effects.

also, where can I get a step up plug that converts the standard line in cable size pin to the guitar pickup connection slot size pin ?
