David Ellefson Recalls Dave Mustaine's Blessing Should He Get The Call From Metallica:
"[In] 2001, [Megadeth] had just recorded 'The World Needs A Hero'. And Dave called me, and he said, he goes, 'Hey, Lars called me, and you're on a shortlist, and asked if it would be okay if they reach out to you.' And Dave said, he goes, 'There's no way I could stop you from that opportunity. You have my blessing. I gave Lars my blessing.' Now, they never called me. And I think they have the right man for the job with Robert [Trujillo]. Robert's fucking great; he's amazing." ~Ultimate Guitar

And, these particular instruments have a lifetime of legendary stories to go along with them so you can also be part of a monumental heavy metal legacy.
