Kirk Hammett revealed his secret guitar warm up #metallica

[OneManParade]

"I'm showing you" made me laugh.

[mags]

"wait I don't know the jazz chord relay."

"No one does."

[jsoffel]

Joe Satriani talking to Vai, “ wait, it gets even better, I told him it’s called the jazz chord relay” 😅😂😅😂

[erikpaterson]

Its an exercise called, "the Diminshed chord relay. "it involves playing seven diminished chords in rapid succession up and down the fretboard..."
A book compilation of 41 exercises that were featured in Guitar magazine. This exercise is featured in the September 1987 edition of Guitar and is called Smart Fingers.
Good luck 🤘🎸

Kirk is slowly transforming into the lion from the Wizard of Oz

[Rickkelley]

Rick - an actual jazz instructor and player “I don’t know the Jazz Chord Relay”

KH: “No one does” flip-flop-flip-flop

[Gregorypeckory]

Actually, the funniest thing about this interview is that Kirk had to defend himself against a scarf that was trying to strangle him, without pausing the conversation. 😱🤣

[fooseballs]

So nice of his grandmother to leave him her scarf and shoes.

[Sixxpackattack]

James force choking him at the beginning

[wadesharp]

He never takes himself seriously that’s what I love about Kirk!!!

[bassalchemist]

We need to hear that with the juice on.

[ushnicyuvnikof]

He's bluffing, we all know he does one thousand heel raises in those gold wha-tastic loafers, in order to Wah-nnihilate his 9 wah pedal board. He's just trying to not wah-veal to us how to reach the true levels of Walhalla.

[JT-wbhl]

I died laughing on the pic of Kirk sitting on a toilet with his guitar😅😅😅

[deadheadsg]

He “practiced” the same thing from 1982, he is now on the same level than in 1982. There you have it, kids..

[codyjohnson]

they definitely weren't thirsty musicians!

[kastnerr]

OK Rick, where is the video breaking down the Jazz chord relay?

[jasonwhite]

I just realized this is the first time ive ever heard him speak

[MashaT]

He actually revealed his exact warmup on Yousician nearly a year ago. So anyone with access to Yousician can see that and a lot of other tips and tricks from the band. 😉 👍🏻

[dancornell]

Seen Satriani at the Beacon years ago 3rd row center stage, what a the show man

[jiskefetisj]

Wearing a leather jacket seems like a decent warm up😂😂
