Tye Trujillo is the latest guest to sit down with Loudwire's Gear Factor to play his favorite bass parts of songs.

Though just 17-years-old, Trujillo has already made a name for himself in the music industry. He has his own bands OTTTO and Feed The Beast and has served as a fill-in for Korn and Suicidal Tendencies during their shows.

He even provided some shredding for Metallica's "Master of Puppets" on the 'Stranger Things' finale. As you may have guessed, Tye is the son of Metallica bassist Robert Trujillo.

    ,,I was struggling with this Metallica song, so I asked my dad for help, the bassist of Metallica." Man is a really good player with nice compositions. It's really fun to listen to him playing.

    Tye totally gots the whole Joco Pastorius look goin' on hardcore!
  • @lisaanderson7924
    Tye seems to be a grounded, down to earth young man! I’m glad he’s doing well! His dad is my favorite member of Metallica, he doesn’t add any drama, loves what he does & it shows.
  • @Spooky_515
    This young man is a really talented musician. It’s in his blood, love suicidal tendencies
  • @drewskiee9254
    From what I understand he's the double doing the solo of Master Of Puppets for Eddie on Stranger Things.
  • @mattdad8429
    Spittin' image of Rob. Very impressive to be able to play like that at his age. I was happy with myself at 17 if I could get through War Pigs.
  • Violent and funky was the first line of rob’s that really got me into infectious grooves, takes everything you got to play that one evenly
  • @wickster2121
    Wow, he's so talented and young! Very natural player - has the technique, phrasing, facility. Even the scales are great. I wish him the best!
  • I am so proud but more impressed and excited to see everything Tye does in his career. He is a badass and it doesn't matter who your dad or teachers are. It matters how hard you practice and want to be great and this guy is going to be all of that.
  • @mitchjoel
    I love how Tye totally went into the family business! Amazing!
  • @jollyj3285
    He's great and seems so nice and humble....love it!
  • @bruth6138
    Awesome. Crazy to think ST’s first album, Robert was Tye’s age. Makes me feel super old.
  • @zekenstien5393
    Love it! I'm a bass guy that started on guitar too, so much of what you say here is spot on with my experience.
  • @damned_1
    Wow, he’s soooo amazing, it’s in his bloodstream!! For sure his father was/is a huge inspiration/influence… of the most bad ass kind! 🙌🏽❤️‍🔥
