    Hanneman and Hetfield use esp's as far as i know, and i think Tom Morello uses Ibenez but i could be mistaken

    Morello uses a lot of Teles and Les Pauls afaik...

    Hetfield uses ESP Explorers and Les Pauls, some Vs and that custom made Explorer with the natural finish

    Jeff Hanneman uses an ESP signature
    James Hetfield uses ESP custom explorers and fovors his Ken Lawerence explorer
    Phil Demmel uses various Jackson flying v's but used an ESP baritone to record most of TTAOE
    Tom Morello once used Peavy but now uses aa custom Fender strat and tele

    jeff uses his own esp signiture guitar but he then puts in a khaler bridge.
    james hetfield plays the old more gibson esque ESP explorers, a gibson les paul which he got nicely done in a custom shop and for the heavyer drop tuned songs he uses an esp "F" series or forest barritone guitar.
    Phil demmel uses various esp flying v's
    All the above artists also use EMG 81 pickups

    Tom morello uses a cheap ass mexian tele and a custom made ibanez guitar, as far as i know with the ibanez he reversed the polaritys on the pickups or something so thats how he does his wierd pickup switchy solos.He also uses some sort of hollowbody guitar for songs lke gueirilla radion(no i dont know how to spell), i think its a gibson not sure though

    Dont have a clue bout chuck from deth though, been meaning to check em out but havent had the time.
