Chloe Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Most likely DJ Ashba. I honestly would like to hear Bumblefoot play lead guitar though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axlsalinger Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Because there are still many songs that Buckethead was involved with that remain unreleased, but have been talked about with enthusiasm by those who have heard them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chloe Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Has Axl said anything about playing with Buckethead on the new album? I don't recall... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towelie Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) I don't think there will be a main lead guitarist. Who was the main lead guitarist on CD? As far as I can tell, Robin and Bucket divided the solos fairly equally and I can imagine CD2 will be the same. I would like to see Fortus get his own solo on the next record, especially seeing as he's a far better lead guitarist than DJ.

ITW 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Obviously Buckethead and Robin Finck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohmygod Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Should be Fortus, if not i would love it to be Finck. Realistically it's likely gonna be DJ. Regardless, any of the above can, have proven, and are more than capable to take on the role as the LEAD player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

droezle Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I reckon Bucket will reign supreme once again, with a smattering of Ron and DJ.Right. Axl: " DJ, i'm gonna bring in Bucket to record the new album so i don't need you during the next 2 years. I call you when we go back on the road."DJ: " But Axl, i worked so hard to get here.

st0n3r Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I think they should lose Bumble and let DJ and Fortus handle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashysdad Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 I don't see why bucket would have any involvement at this stagePeople were saying this constantly between 04 and 08. We all know what the result was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovim Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) It's probably going to be mostly Bucket and Robin, which is the way I think it should be.At least for the next release I feel it would be better if we'll actually get to hear the rest of what Axl wanted to do before moving forward with whatever he'll maybe try to achieve with the current line up.The songs on Chinese were good enough for me to want more of that with the same people that made it happen (Bucket and Robin)over anything the current line up will try doing.Not that I'm not excited about that too, I just want it after CD II is released.

Of course, in some songs we're probably gonna have all four of them, like what happened with Bumble and Bucket on some songs in CD. That's what I'm guessing.

RandallFlagg Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I voted Bucket because I want it to be Bucket even though it most likely won't be Bucket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Glow Inc. Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I'd say DJ Ashba...if Axl...*sigh*...chooses to get rid of the Bucket material.I wish it was Fortus and Bumble though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaneisKing1389 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I'm pulling for an album of Finck and Buckethead again, honestly. Slowly becoming less and less of a fan of DJ's playing. Love the guy and GREAT for both Axl and the band, but I can't get into him live. I'm a Finck supporter.And you can't go wrong with Buckethead. If you have Finck, I think you'd have to have some Bucket. They worked together. I'd hate to see Ron around again just to play over stuff already established.

Iras Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I feel that Bucket was main driving force (solos) in like 99% of ChD stuff, released or notIt's him who made Axl belive in ChD at all, gave him a lot of confidanceIt'll be him and in some cases Robin as I recon they have lots of writing creditsBut some of their solos, unfortunately, may be rerecorded by current line-upRon & Dj will have their 5 minutes as lead guitarists when ChD voult will be emptyIt may take some time as according to Rose there was so much material recorded between 1995-2008 will see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I doubt they'll throw out good guitar work. maybe they change some like Shacklers n Catcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulMonster Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Any predictions?I reckon Bucket will reign supreme once again, with a smattering of Ron and DJ.It would be nice if Fortus got at least one solo this time around.What is CDII? The follow-up to Chinese Democracy? If so I guess a lot of the guitar work will come from Bucket and Finck, like with Chinese Democracy, perhaps re-recorded by Dj and Bumbles. If, on the other hand, you are thinking more in the terms of the next GN'R record, then it may contain only new songs, with Dj and Bumbles being the lead guitarists.
