Rex Brown

With more praise coming from musicians such as Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony, Eric Gales, John Five, Megadeth's Kiko Loreo, the world's greatest bass educator in his own mind, Jeff Berlin, Bobby Lewis...

Nolly Getgood, Richard Shaw, Tommy Lee, and Pantera's Rex Brown, who's actually seen him live.

But there's just one tiny, tiny problem.

He's not playing fucking any of it! Deja vu, then.

This one was pricey enough, but it is lovely.

This also happens to be the Rex Brown Signature Series guitar.

Um, so for folks who like their music heavy, you may know Rex Brown as being the bassist of Pantera.

So this is his signature.

The sustain on this thing is unreal.

Steele.

Kelly also played with Rex Brown, Seven Witches, Kill Devil Hill.

Kenny Henke also played with Kingdom of Sorrow, incited Elton John, Jimi Hendrix, T-Rex, Pink Floyd, and Black Sabbath as influences.

So if you like those bands, there are going to be elements of them in Typo Negative.

Oh, sure.

Because when I started doing that with Down, Rex Brown was the bass player in Down.

So yeah, so that was like 2009, over the under record.

And yeah, started touring with Down.

So he had the Moogs.

And we messed around with digital switching systems as well and stuff like that for him up front.

Plus, he had his Rex Brown Morley Wah that they made for him.

So he had that.

Right, right.

And bass player Rex Brown was Rex Rocker.

He was a rocker, all right.

And Phil Anselmo wasn't even the vocalist.

Um, let's start off with one that we actually saw.

This right here is one that we actually played, um, but I wasn't really listening to it too much at the time 'cause I was trying to concentrate on the bass itself, that being the Rex Brown-

I remember

... um, Specter that we were playing.

Yep, I remember being totally...

What was I say? Totally engorged in.

Uh, totally engrossed in the Rex Brown-

Yeah

I can't remember the guitarist's name.

And, um, [sniffs] Rex Brown-

Mm-hmm

... from Pantera.
