  • Low cut: 70–90 Hz (remove boom)
  • Cut: -3 dB at 300–400 Hz (reduce muddiness)
  • Boost: +2–3 dB at 3–5 kHz (attack)
  • Tight Low End: No flubby bass. It’s cut aggressively.
  • Scooped Highs: It isn't brittle. The pick attack is sharp, but the fizz is tamed.
  • Aggressive Mids: This is the "box." The 1kHz to 2kHz range is pushed hard, making the guitar sound like it is trapped in a wooden cab (in a good way).
  • Dual Layers: Hetfield famously double-tracked (or quad-tracked) his guitars. Our preset needs to be mix-ready, not bedroom-solo pretty.
  • Model: High-gain rectifier/modern amp model
  • Gain: 6–7 o’clock (moderate–high) adjust to taste
  • Bass: 11–12 o’clock
  • Mid: 1–2 o’clock (scooped but still defined)
  • Treble: 1–2 o’clock
  • Presence: 1–2 o’clock
  • Channel volume: match input level

Down-Picking: James Hetfield’s signature "chug" relies almost entirely on aggressive down-picking rather than alternate picking. Palm Muting Unleashing the Fury: Guitar Rig 5 Metal Preset
