Welcome to my bass lesson on the iconic intro of Master of Puppets by Metallica! This bassline is one of the most recognized in metal history, and it’s a must-learn for any bassist. In this lesson, I break down the intro note by note, showing you how to achieve the aggressive, tight tone that makes this song so powerful. I’ll cover techniques like palm muting, fast picking, and how to approach the fast tempo of this intro, making it easier for you to play along.

Master of Puppets, released in 1986, is one of Metallica’s most important albums, and its title track is a fan favorite. The bass intro, played by the legendary Cliff Burton, is iconic for its heaviness and speed. The intro sets the tone for the entire song, building up the intensity and giving the track its unmistakable energy. In this lesson, I walk you through all the key techniques, including how to get the right tone, timing, and articulation.
