Both of these guitarist are excellent solo masters but they hate each other. I just ask who is better Kirk or Dave?

    Dave I think is better. Also, not that this influenced me in any way, but he was ranked the Best Metal Guitarist of All Time by some "top 100" book

    How about an option for Dave in Metallica?

        He is one of the two choices. How can he not be as good as himself? And he hasn't been in Metallica since the 80's.

        You do know that Dave Mustaine was the first Metallica guitarist, right? He was replaced by Kirk Hammet and he then started Megadeth.

        You clearly had no idea.

          I knew that but Dave in Megadeth was a better guitar player than when he was in Metallica. he played heavier and faster in Megadeth than he played in Metallica making him a better guitarist in Megadeth.

            Okay but what about the 2 years thing? That is more than a little off.
