I always liked his playing, far more hard rock and playing with feel than metal & speed, at least in comparison to his peers in other metal bands. I mean compare his style with Marty Friedman of Megadeth, who is much more of that LA/Satriani style. I totally prefer Hammett's style. I think it is his more hybrid approach to metal that sets him and Metallica apart.

He plays on arguably one of the best and most influential metal record ever, Masters of Puppets, so that counts for something.
