Epiphone Rex Brown Thunderbird Bass, a new addition to our core lineup, in collaboration with the legendary bassist Rex Brown. Best known for his dynamic performances with iconic metal bands like Pantera and Down, and his solo album “Smoke on This…”, Brown now brings his signature style to Epiphone.
Rex Brown Thunderbird Bass
Presenting the first-ever Epiphone signature model from Rex Brown, this bass is a true standout. Crafted with precision, it features a 9-ply neck-through-body design, combining mahogany and walnut for the neck with a comfortable C-shape profile. The body wings are also made of mahogany, ensuring a rich, resonant sound. The standard 34″ scale length makes it a familiar choice for bassists of all styles.
It is based on his more expensive Gibson signature model model that came out in 2023 and has the same aesthetics as this new Epiphone model.
Epiphone ProBucker 760
At the heart of the Rex Brown Thunderbird Bass are the powerful Epiphone ProBucker 760 bass pickups, encased in stylish nickel covers that perfectly complement the bass’s all-gold hardware. These pickups deliver the tone and clarity that metal and rock bassists crave.
CTS
The bass’s electronics include two volume controls and a master tone control, all equipped with smooth CTS potentiometers for reliable, nuanced sound shaping. Adding to its aesthetic, the gold pickguard showcases the iconic Thunderbird logo.
Signed & Doodled on
A personal touch is found on the back of the headstock, where Rex Brown’s signature is proudly displayed, and the rear control cover features a unique Rex Brown logo doodle.
Bass Case
Each Rex Brown Thunderbird Bass comes with a hardshell case, ensuring that your instrument is protected whether at home or on the road.
