Iceman24 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 So, I decided to compare the 3 guitarists Slash, Buckethead and Bumblefoot in an audio comparison. I didn't use video footage, because I didn't want all people saying Buckethead just stands there, etc. It's just about the sound. I used three songs: YCBM, November Rain, Nightrainhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVV0qlukPVw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fit To Burn Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 wow, they are all awesome. I think Ron had the edge there on November Rain. And Maybe Bucket was the best there on Nightrain but there are nights when either of these guys owns the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

final_touches Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 (edited) Interesting thread YCBM:1) Bucket2) Slash3) BBF (sounds bad; just unmelodic noise and many tones)NR:1) BBF2) Bucket3) SlashNightrain:1) Bucket (He OWNS this song!!)2) BBF (normally I don' t like his attemps on Nightrain, but this is really good)3) Slash (sorry Slash, but I still like it)EDIT:I just realized how great Bucket played in GN'R. If this was the point of this thread, it worked out smoothly! Edited November 28, 2006 by final_touches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman24 Posted November 28, 2006 Author Share Posted November 28, 2006 (edited) I realised, I didn't give my opinion on the songs. YCBM:1) Buckethead2) Slash3) Bumblefoot (too much shredding. No melody)NR:1) Buckethead (amazing, what he did with it. Really cool new melody)2) Bumblefoot, Slash (they are equal.)Nightrain:1) Buckethead (just blows me away every time. Unbelievable what amazing outro he created)2) BBF (nice nightrain outro. Shredding, but I like it)3) Slash (still cool) Edited November 28, 2006 by Iceman24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckethead(This was REALLY close for Slash and BBF - But Ron's took it just)Nightrain1. Buckethead2. Bumblefoot3. SlashWell..not what I was expecting. They all shared my favourite. I didn't plan it on being like that, I put all bias aside and picked as I heard them.Who's a Slashite now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeanGenie Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 YCBM SlashBucketheadBBFNVSlashBuckethead BBFNightrainSlashBucketheadBBfyou can't be better than the original slash owns both in each second of every song. but I still realize that buckethead is quite good and I prefer him over Ron, thou ron seems more connected to the real world.

Vegabond Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 YCBMBucketheadSlashRonI got no idea what Bumble was trying to pull off.It just didn't sound right at all.November RainBucketheadSlash,Ron(Tie)Bucket's ending(Is that what you call an outro?) was really the icing on the cake.NightrainBucketheadSlashRonBucket is the clear winner here.I just can't get over the fact that he manages to shred without losing the groove or feeling at all and how clean his tone is plus the fact he added alot of improvisations and his own style to it.Ack,I seem to be completely biased for Buckethead.

moreblack Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I prefer Slash's style of playing. That's no secret.The other guys did a great job too.It's hella cool to hear the 3 of them back to back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
