Why this hub
Leave/return marks GnR brand continuity fights; Appetite tone remains the citation.
Born Saul Hudson, 1965. Les Paul leads on Welcome to the Jungle and Sweet Child O’ Mine define late-80s hard-rock radio tone. Exits mid-90s; returns 2016 with Duff for touring. Hub value: guitar identity that can leave the logo and reattach.
