Trey Azagthoth and Dean

[hunter1970]

Has anybody seen the latest youtube live clips of Morbid Angel?Trey's playing 2 deans that are his own models,the one I like is called Astro-X,its Star shaped with H/S , 24 frets,Floyd and a bolt-on.
The other one is called The Razorback X-Core.
It's on the Dean website.
The Star shaped is reall cool except for that ugly headstock.I can't wait for one of these to be available. I once had a Red BC Rich Ironbird NJ series with a Kahler just because Trey played one.

Kind look familiar don't they.. a bit?

[hunter1970]

Well the Ironbird has the old San Dimas Charvel Star finish, I forget what it was called.

makes sense - he's a tampa boy, and shopped at Thoroughbred Music for 20 years, just like the rest of us, i am sure he's known Elliot (owner of Dean) for a long time know, and most Dean endorsers are in heavy bands -- I am sure they will take good care of him at Dean.

Morbid's practice room was across the hall from mine for TEN YEARS. loudest damn band you ever heard at PRACTICE. i love them, though.....good tight band with some solid musicianship going on....

Shame their new album was a pile of shite. Trey is a uniquely talented musician and songwriter and one of my favourite guitarists of all time. He's always had the weirdest taste in guitars - rosewood fretboards, dot inlays and bolt-ons pretty much exclusively.

Very cool. Trey is in this month's Guitar World. Opened my eyes to some new music.

I knew Trey back in the 80's when they were in Charlotte NC. He pretty much played BC Riches exclusively then. Him and Richard both. I so wanted a BC Rich then.

Yeah, the new album. Where's the facepalm smiley.

That's awesome! Funnily enough, i've really been GASing for an old Ferrari Red Ironbird for a while (and a Charvel Star in the same colour).

Indeed, i'll stick with the eerie chaotic darkness of "Abominations of Desolation" (their masterpiece if you ask me), the first three albums and "Formulas...".

It's looks like the Deans have left handed trem bars on them.
Wouldn't it be cool if the Astro-X was the same scale as a DK2,hmm.

Yeah, I can tell you some stories. I was there when they were writing a lot of those old classics; went to a lot of rehearsals and hung out a lot at their house on Sunnyside. I remember driving David to Barnes&Noble so he could get a thesaurus when working on the lyrics to Thy Kingdom Come. And they had this psychopathic pitbull named Butch that hated cats....

So when did Trey have the tattoo removed from his right arm?!?

[hunter1970]

You mean this tattoo.

[toejam]

Yeah, he had it for years. Guess it was lasered off?

[Devotee]

The Ancient Ones do not approve.
