So we finally got to the studio last saturday!
In the end I made a blend between the two options: recorded drums and bass together, with me playing a scratch guitar and the vocalist doing a scratch vocal. Next we'll record the rythm guitars (me and the other guitarist together), then my solos, then the vocals, and finally the harmonica (if he records before anyone, he'll play all over the song and I'll have extra work editing). Everyone monitored through headphones (even who was not recording), so it felt like a rehearsal, and I recorded drums with 4 mics, as in my initial goal.
We've got some decent drumming for 2 songs, and the bass parts for one of them (the other will be redone).
The best part is that everyone got involved, and got a great time doing that.
