providman Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 I haven't heard anything on any of these "new" songs that a competent session guitar player couldn't handle. I'm sure Fortus could play those parts note for note. I highly doubt Finck could, though. From what I've heard so far, Buckethead in GnR was just another shredder - it sounds like they never really tapped into what he's all about.

mcalldp Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Heck I can play all the parts on TWAT, not hard at all. The very end lick has a couple quick runs that I would have to practice more but I got very close to the sound on first run through using:CAE OD-100 chn 2 with overdrive running a little verb from TC effects rack and a Strat plus running Bill Lawrence Humbucker in the bridge and a morley Tremonti power wah. Going through 2X12 with one Celestion Vintage 30 and one G12h30. I have to listen to the solos in the other songs but who plays the one's in TWAT?Listening, IRS...little fast for my hands but there are a TON of people that could play that.... anyway, my .02 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucket13 Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 It'll either be another fast shredder or they will write guitar solos that will fit Finck's or Richard's playing style...it'll be more interesting to hear two different versions of the songs... :krider: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Niveen Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 OK, you are going to ask me if I still believe in Santa Claus, but I think it would be a wonderful token of friendship if Slash helped Axl to finish CD re-recording Buckethead's parts, and then toured with GN'R.

From what I've heard so far, Buckethead in GnR was just another shredder - it sounds like they never really tapped into what he's all about.The voice of reason, thank you, sir. The only 'new' leaked song that BH is definitely on is IRS. I took the clip we got last year and dubbed it over this new clip in FCP and Garageband and the solo is exactly the same. So, it's gotta be BH? Right? As for 'Better' and 'TWAT', there's no real indication that that work is BH. There's no shredding. In fact, TWAT sounds like it could be Slash's work. I know it's not, but it has that 'Slash Feel' to it. Blusey guitar. Fortus can EASILY pull off the guitar work in Better and TWAT, no doubt about it. As for Finck, once again, no credit where credit is due. He's not your blusey guitar player, but he brings that industrial twist to the table that we all hear in these new songs. Just as important as anybody else if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dani69 Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 sorry ashole but newbies like you should get anal raped in a ally and get aids.Intellegent, very intellegent... I think you're just too dumb to get what I wanted to say: Your Buckethead & Slash aren't the only guitar players that could play those solos or lead guitars. There more no-name-guitar-players out there who would be able to play that stuff. It's not impossible, Axl just needed to pay any good musician for playing it (if Buckethead won't do it). Cause Slash won't comeback anyway... that's goneThey need only 2 guitarists. They didn't have a 3rd one when they were successful and they don't need one now. Just look at the live gigs: 70% of the time Buckethead's just standing around without any move or playing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangit Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 If a new guitarist isnt anounced, it either means, the other guitarists are covering the material or, someone interesting may be part of the tour????????? Why not announce a new guitarist if there is one??????? no reason not too.Unless it was some "special guest"!just a thought! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpUd_Jr Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 (edited) They need a Buckethead style shredder live if the final versions of the songs still contain his solos.Also, Izzy would not want to play alongside Finck and Fortus Edited February 23, 2006 by SpUd_Jr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlashisGOD Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I doubt Izzy would ever return unless at least Slash did. If Slash came back, then I could see Izzy returning. Besides, Izzy wouldn't want to play mindless shredding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
there is no dana only zool Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I'm going to draw another parallel between Axl and God in this one:When facing strong adversity, Christians are sometimes told to simply "leave it in God's hands..." This means letting go of the internal struggles you face and trusting your faith in the god above... well, here goes... my struggle and worries are that there won't be anyone else that will be able to pull off the style and shredding like buckethead has on the tracks we've heard... however... I trust in Axl... I trust he will select the best replacement for him or perhaps not even select one at all- Ultimately, it is in my opinion that whatever happens will be even better than when Bucket was in the fold.(sidenote* I don't really look to Axl as God almighty and don't actually think about things like what i've written above, frequently... it was just something funny i decided to add) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kropotkin Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Maybe it is not a surprise guitarist at all ... but a new surprise singer, maybe Axl got hold of Liberace? He could really pull off those high notes on the CD demos ... !!! As for new guitarist? Maybe CC Deville from Poison!Yah! :xmassrudolph: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpUd_Jr Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 (edited) Maybe it's Axl himself!!!Who knows how good he has gotten in his time off?! Edited February 23, 2006 by SpUd_Jr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasted Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Was Buckethead playing on the leaked tracks?Everytime I heard a solo on these leaked tracks I thought of Zeppelin. So Slash to me could come in and nail those solos. Izzy(plugged in?) could replace Fortus. Stinson/Duff - I think Stinson is the coolest new member but Duff was cool as well. The drumming on leaked tracks sound like a machine but Brain is better than Sorum. The sound has changed overall so I don't think any of old members could mesh in properly but it would be really cool if all these guys old and new turned up on tour and played in GNR. Paradise City without Slash isn't right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abw1987 Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I sure hope not. Unlesss Izzy has...1. Learned to solo2. Gotten rid of that gay vest/hat3. Started moving around on stageGood songwriter though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
