When Metallica released “One” as the final single off their 1989 album And Justice For All, they finally had a certified hit on their hands after years of zero radio and MTV support.
“One” uses the same formula they used on earlier songs like “Fade To Black” and “Welcome Home (Sanitarium)” in that it begins with a slow clean section and progressively builds in heaviness and aggression throughout the song.
In the four videos of this One Guitar Lesson series, we will take an in depth look at all the different epic guitar parts that make up this seminal Metallica classic.
The first video covers the intro and verse of the song. It starts out with an easy to play arpeggiated picking pattern in the rhythm guitar part. After one complete cycle through those chords the intro guitar solo arrives.
The solo that Kirk Hammett created here fits the haunting underlying guitar riffs perfectly. He craftily incorporates smooth bends, rapid one string legato, sweep picking, cross string picking and more into this fantastic opening solo statement.
After the solo the same chord progression is continued with a little bit busier picking pattern. That pattern continues into the verse with just a little slight variation.
In the second video lesson we will take a look at all the heavy and distorted rhythm guitar riffs. Those riffs include the chorus, heavy musical interlude section and the machine gun like rhythmic patterns that are employed throughout the entire extended ending section of “One”.
In the third video lesson we will go back and learn the second clean solo that Kirk Hammett plays just before the last chorus. Once again he uses a multitude of techniques including fast pull-offs and tapping. It is a short but sweet little solo that does a really nice job of complimenting the underlying chord work.
For the final video lesson we will take a look at the epic main solo that is perhaps the most beloved of all of Kirk Hammett’s solos. It contains some extremely fast tapping maneuvers, tremolo picking, fast legato licks, speedy blues inflected bends, doublestops and more. Yes, it is quite a workout!
At the end of the fourth video I will also demonstrate how to play the guitar harmony section that pretty much closes out the song.
All-in-all, this One Guitar Lesson provides a great learning experience if you want to master many metal lead and rhythm guitar techniques. It truly is a song that has it all.
Enjoy!!

Carl your amazing I have learned so much from your videos. Metallica request…my friend of misery and the outlaw torn
Спасибо друг! Thank you my friend!
это очень странно, но не зная Английского языка, мне намного легче учиться по этому видео, чем на русскоязычных каналах)))
Could you show me how to do the verse? I don't think you covered that very well near the end
очень круто ! спасибо.
Does he pull off b string then at the start of the solo confused
appreciate all your lessons uve done tutorials on some of my favorites
Nice 😉 keep it :))
You have a habit of explaining certain parts too fast to really have time to keep up with but other than that this is a great video
This was on my b day.
Which guitar are you using?
2:38 someone please explain how to do this part i cant get it skdjdj
Lmfaoooo
Nice lesson, sir…well played. much thanks!!
I mean I love your videos but I think sometimes you can´t explain that good so I understand. I´ve been playing guitar for about 9 years now and I learn really fast but, when I watch your videos I´ll have to pause the video and watch the same spot over and over again.
NO HATE I rly love your videos and you post the best lessons/covers. I don´t know if you`ll ever read this but I wanted you to know that sometimes I don´t understand where or what to play. 🙂
pls don´t be mad..
Can you play this on a Les Paul on standard tuning? Just currious
