Spit out the Bone instantly became my favourite song from Metallica's Hardwired...to self-destruct album. The thrashiest of the lot and sounds huge.
I heard the rhythm guitar track on its own and trying to work out what amp/s it is:
To me that seems to have a Marshall vibe to it, like Kill 'em All/Ride the Lightning sound wise. I don't really hear any trace of Mesa/Boogie in it at all. The bottom end is very tight, but isn't as percussive like the Mark series or rumbly like the Recto. It's more woody. The upper midrange sounds edgy but not nasal like a Marshall can be known to be. The top end is crunchy and edgy but doesn't have that sizzle of a MarkIIC+ at all or the top-end fizz of a Recto- you can hear that particular fizzy sound on the 'Load-style songs like Am I Savage?, Dream no more, Now that we're dead, Here Comes Revenge and partly like Confusion ({i]Confusion[/i] seems to have both the crunch of the IIC+ and fizz of the Recto).
I'm not complaining about it- I absolutely love it! I love those huge full ringing chords from 2:40.
Do you reckon this is just the Wizard Modern Classic amp on its own?
Would it be a combo of the Wizard and James' MarkIIC+? The MarkIIC+ set as "Marshally" as possible for a different setting?
