Metallica's first bassist was Ron McGoveny. McGoveny left the band because of the constant harassment from the bands first guitarits: David Mustain.
Metallica's second Bassist was Cliff Burton. Cliff was killed while on tour, when he was throw from the bus when it lost control because the driver was drunk, and landed on him. RIP.
Metallica's third bassist was Jason Newsted. Newsted quit the band to further his music career, and focus on his own band.
Metallica's current bassit is Robert Trujillo.-
i always thought after Cliff passed away that metallica would never settle with one bass player but i think the best replacement was Jason and that no one will ever be a better replacement but the answer to your question is no, but after all its their decision

Metallica has had 4 bassists, in my opinion there was no other like cliff Burton
Ron mcgovney back in 1981
he was the bassist of ozzy osbourne band.
presumably metallica ... Such as James Hetfeild, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett, and Robert Truijo. I am not sure if you can play as Dave Mustain (Metallica's first Guitarist currently in the band Megadeath), Cliff Burton (Metallica's original bassist, who died in a tour bus accident), or Jason Newstead (Metallica's bassist from Cliff's death to the Reload album.)
Suicidal Tendencies and Ozzy Osbourne.
