Fun Metallica cover armed with Explorers and Boogies

[Nitrobattery]

My friend asked me to play guitar on this 'Wherever I May Roam Cover', and since I never get an opportunity to play my Explorer on anything, I jumped at it. All of the guitars are a Mark IV. Straight in for the rhythm tracks and boosted with an 808 for the solo.

The multiple wahs were of course mandatory.

nice cover! Solo was spot on

 

[Mike Oxhuge]

Great job all around, tones, playing, vocals!

 

[TheGreatGreen]

Awesome cover.

The playing was super accurate and, to maybe be a little bit sacrilegious here, I think the high gain tones here might actually be better than the ones in the original recording.

edit: the dual wah gag was great, lol

I almost edited in a third foot and wah, but I figured that would be too much

Thanks for the kind words! The rhythm guitars were just my 2 dot Japanese EXP-200 into a Mark IVb into a Suhr Reactive Load with IR's of a 4x12 with V30's.

It absolutely would not have been too much.

Killer rig. I have a IVb also and love it. Those EXP’s are really special though.

Been wanting to try a MK IV but they've gotten crazy expensive used.

 

[Ignoramus]

That.Was.Awesome.

Vocalist and Guitarist were perfect for this song. Booyah!

I think the Mark IV is my favorite amp of all time. Nicely done!

It's quickly becoming mine as well. I had one years ago and sold it, but I got this one in trade about a year ago and it's been getting a lot of use. Set the right way, it'll do some killer rock tones through Greenbacks.

The EXP was a pandemic purchase. I bought it in the parking lot of a mall and when I got it the frets were totally shot. It got a full 6105 re-fret and now it's a ripper. Sounds great too.
