Randall Amplifiers announced the launch of the Kirk Hammett Signatures Series. The new line includes amps, cabinets, modules and combos that all reflect the tones and voices that Metallica's legendary guitarist has spent a career perfecting. Musicians of all skill levels can now harness Kirk's groundbreaking sound with Randall Amplifiers' vast variety of signature products.

The Kirk Hammett Signature Series will include gear ranging from MTS modules, all-tube heads, power tubes and even a limited edition half-stack, fully decked out with solid maple cabinetry and chrome hardware, all to enable musicians everywhere to attain his flawless sound. Kirk worked tirelessly with Randall to ensure that every aspect of the amps, from the clean and crunchy preamps to the stunning visual appeal, were fully up to the standards of one of the greatest guitar players of all time.

"This is the first time I've really done any kind of amp endorsement," said Kirk Hammett of Metallica. "I knew that there's a lot of work that goes into it, and I'm really picky anyway. But things have turned out great. I'm really proud of how these modules and amps have turned out."

The feature-packed amps, cabinets, MTS modules and combos will enable guitar players of all levels to finally capture the distinctive sounds that Kirk has worked so diligently to perfect. From the half-stacks that can be used for recording and live shows to the 15-watt practice combos, every knob and button has been tweaked to perfection by Kirk and Randall's dedicated staff.
