oFTEN CONSIDERED TO BE A YAMAHA AES920, WHILST BARING SOME RESEMBLANCE, A NUMBER OF “FEATURES” WOULD SUGGEST OTHERWISE:

  • BARITONE SCALE LENGTH

  • 24 FRETS

  • NO FRET MARKERS

  • PICKUP SELECTOR PLACEMENT

  • 4 KNOBS/POTS

  • TAILPIECE bridge

iF ANYTHING, IT IS MORE AKIN TO THE bARITONE Yamaha AES820D6.

We believe it to be a custom built guitar.

Buckethead already had the Yamaha when joining Guns N’ Roses.

First seen at 2001 Rock in Rio for a performance of nightrain, it was used again in september 2002 for 3 C2B3 shows. this was between g n’ r shows, so the assumption is that the white les pauls and kfc v were in storage with the bands touring equipment.

It has not been seen since!
