Buckethead

Jackson Y2KV "Coopwood". custom made, reverse neck, with larger body and headstock.

Heartfield Talon II (Midnight blue with Pink Pickups. Used in early Deli Creeps shows)

Steinberger GS Kaiser's Gift, given to him by Henry Kaiser (the musician).

Ibanez X Series Rocket Roller II with Schaller floating tremolo and custom egg-yolk-colored double-coils (one white, one yellow) designed by Steve Blucher at DiMarzio

This relic is sitting at a Hard Rock cafe in Hollywood.

Buckethead can be seen playing it at 0:49. This is his backup guitar for when there's a problem with his signature Les Paul.

Buckethead has been using his Signature version since the 2009 tour. He used to use these as his main guitars. He hasn't used his signature guitars since the 2012 tour. The difference is the studio one has a satin finish with no binding and the signature has a gloss finish with binding. The fretboard on the studio has a baked maple fretboard and the signature has an ebony fretboard but during the middle of the run of these guitars, The gov't took most of Gibsons wood stock so they started putting richlite on the Signature les pauls. The studios stayed the same and didnt have any changes. The Studio and Signature has all the same electronics pickups.

He used my 1968 Les Paul and my brother's black Telecaster.

Buckethead has been using his studio version since the 2016 tour. He is using these as his main guitars. He hasn't used his signature guitars since the 2012 tour.

Custom built double-neck Flying V made for him by Jackson. Rarely used, later sold for $16,500.

This leads to Travis Dickerson's Website where he held a "COOP SWEEPINGS" where they autioned off a guitar that Buckethead used to practice and warm up for sets with, on the website is a picture of the guitar(http://tdrsmusic.com/coop_guitar_1.jpg) and some info about it: "This is Bucketheads personal acoustic guitar. It was on the 2008 tour and he used it to practice and warm up for sets. Crafter D8/N. Sold as set up by Buckethead. The guitar will be signed by buckethead." It was eventually auctioned off for "$1,700"

Buckethead uses this amplifier in one of your videos called "young buckethead" and can be noticed when the use this amplifier to play solo

Seen throughout this video from a 2009 live show at Nelson Ledges Quarry Park in Ohio, Buckethead plays in front of two Mesa Boogie Stiletto Tridents.

This photo of Buckethead playing live at the Barrymore Theatre in Madison, WI in 2008 shows he uses a pair of Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifier Amp Heads. The one to the right of the photo sits on top of an angled Marshall speaker cabinet.

At 0:49 in the video you can clearly see Buckethead playing in front of The Powerball II head.

This is a 4k video of buckethead live in 2016, you can clearly see that the marshal cab he's been using since 2008 is a marshall 1960A cab.

Buckethead used a 5150 head back in the 90s.

Buckethead playing live at a 2011 show in Pittsburgh and seen here in front of Bogner Uberschall head.

Buckethead plays a live version of "Soothsayer" at a 2011 show in Pittsburgh. He's seen here in front of a Marshall JVM Series JVM410H 100W Tube Guitar Amp Head.

Clearly in this video , we can see that there is a marshall jcm900 not sure if it is 4100 or not.

added to his rig for the 2016 tour

As seen in a Reddit post of Buckethead's Exit/In, Nashville 5/1/2018 pedal setup: https://www.reddit.com/r/guitarpedals/comments/8gj4gv/bucketheads_pedals_from_exitin_nashville_512018/

In this video, behind buckethead is a hiwatt 4x12 cab witha evh 5150 amp on top of it

I saw buckethead back in April of 2018, and he was using one Hi-Watt 4x12 and one EVH 4x12. Usally he uses 1 marshall and 1 Hi-watt but for some shows I've seen and EVH in the backround but I don't think it has a mic on it. I only saw a mic in front of the Hi-Watt, I think the EVH is for stage volume.

Buckethead can be spotted using a Whammy II, (not 5 as someone else has noted) during this performance and most, if not all past present and future performances. You can see the black pedal to the left of his FM4.

The Boss OS-2 can be seen in this photo on the right of his second pedal board, right after his Mold Spore Wah.
