ESP KH 2 - Kirk Hammett Signature DEMO (with Pedals and Amp settings)

► Video informations : KH 2 Kirk Hammett Signature model made in Japan from 2008.
I show you how i use it, combined with gear i use in real situation to give you an idea how the guitar sounds in context with all effects, cause who use these kind of guitar straight into the amp ? nobody. I use both Bridge and Neck pickups as Kirk does, i've never see him use both pickups together so ...
You can riff hard on it and in the same time really Lead with it. But the big surprise is you can have really nice clean tone and light overdriven tone as well, and this is really cool to cover all range of Metallica tones.

Welcome Friends, finally a demo of the KH-2 ! It's a way to present a little bit my rig too for the one who interested in. I present the guitar how i use it (with pedals etc...) through 4 sections (Clean, light overdrive, Heavy and Lead) with 'Tallica exemples (titles are written in the corner) READ infos on the screen. Links of the gear used in video description - can be useful. Also link for help me with donation if you think this video brings joy and happiness in your life - I'm sure it does ! 🖤 And finally if you like this video, THUMBS UP and COMMENT - it really help the channel ! Stay Metal.

Another piece of art. I love your videos. I'm a Metallica fan like most here and your videos are masterly made, yout playing is awesome and your tone is spot on. How you can reproduce their tone (or at least get it 99% close) is unbelievable to me. Keep it up!

@JulienMENARD 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you very Miguel, nice to read you love my videos. The answer is in this video, my set up is pretty simple but totally different of what Metallica have. Since my King Nothing video i change my amp, cab and mic' to something really different and really usable in an easy way, like a plate form pedal amp and IR cab and it's killer. My pedal board don't change since this demo. If you notice, even Metallica never had the same tone on every record, it make me understand many years ago the main thing is the way you play the guitar, not the gear, i think this is is the point to sound as. Hope i give you some point with this answer friend ! See you on my latest and future video ! 👊🏻 💀 👊🏻
