My friend who works at Seymour Duncan just told me yesterday that Kirk Hammett (yes, EMG playing Kirk Hammett) is now using a JB/Jazz setup in all of his live guitars. Anyway, I just thought it was awesome so I'd share.

Re: Kirk Hammett's now using Duncans!!
Umm....I hope it helps him to start playing leads...snicker snicker. St. bogus
What happened to Hammet? Come on man I miss the SHRED!! It's got to be tastefull though. Angry or sad or just plain tearing it up. That album was boring to me. Check out Jonathan Donais from shadows fall if you haven't already. Now there is an up and coming metal guitarist. Speaking of RIP Dime im still torn. Don't know what you got till it's gone. -

A few years ago Kirk started using a 58 Les Paul and got a taste for passive pups then...maybe after a few years it just took over!If you just read a post by The Guy Who Invented Fire please understand that opinions change, mind sets change and as players our ears mature...not to mention our needs grow and change. With that in mind, today I may or may not agree with the post you just read!

Re: Kirk Hammett's now using Duncans!!
Great! I bought St. Anger the first day it came out and had to pay the full price which is something I never do (I'll usually be waiting for a better deal) but I was so convinced those albums would sell like hot cakes and I wanted that DVD! But I couldn't keep my eyes on the screen when I saw the DVD and couldn't listen to the full album at least not with breaks, meaning it made very little impression on me. It was so much of the same! Now knowing Kirk's going back to organic passives makes me excited about Metallica again, which I was convinced I'd never be againJackson USA '98 Custom Shop KE2 w/ Duncan TB-4 JB(b) & Jazz(n)

Re: Kirk Hammett's now using Duncans!!
krik used the Duncan Distortion years ago(james used the INVADER) on RTL and MOP in his gibsons.
I will not say which is better since that is a matter of need and opinion only.

James used the Invader on Kill Em All and RTL. He switched to EMG's on the RTL tour and recorded MOP with the Flying V (Invader) and Explorer (81/81).Originally posted by SAVAGE DISTORTIONkrik used the Duncan Distortion years ago(james used the INVADER) on RTL and MOP in his gibsons.

I'm not sure when Kirk switched to EMGs, but I think it was during the Kill Em All tour. I could be wrong though.|| Guitar | Wah | Vibe | Amp ||Comment

I don't see why it would be a problem to have people knowing that. I doubt it will hurt their sales...Originally posted by TattooedCarrotI'm wondering if your friend at SD might not want you leaking it here on the board, and claiming it came from an employee
