About Me



I am Razor Rex. I have the nickname from wearing the Razorblade around my neck in honor of Dimebag Darrell Abbott.
I play the Guitar -- I use Ibanez Guitars. I prefer the XPT700 series with a special setup - Dimarzio D-Activator Pickups - DR Dimebag Strings 11-50 Gauge, tuned 1 1/2 Steps Down. I recently switched to Krank and record with the Krank Rev Pro Jr and my live rig I play through a Krankenstein+ 120 watt Head and a Custom 4x12 Cabinent loaded with 2 12" Eminence Texas Heat and 2 12" Eminence Legend v128's. I also use Dunlop Tortex .83 Jazz Picks.
I am currently looking for other musicians that share my goals in music: Total domination. Nothing less than complete success. I am a fan of Metal and living the life of a Metal Musician is the only thing that will satisify me. If you are interested in getting together and jamming, send me a message. If you are interested in going the distance, I must warn you -- I am not looking for a half-assed "I'll get to it later" or "I haven't listened to that song" or a "I'll listen to that song later and learn the beat" or whatever approach. I'm interested in making a living off of music, I expect nothing less than 150% from everyone in the band.
I have studied hard on Music Business, I know what the expectations are. I've shed my delusions about being "signed" or "getting the big contract." I have a plan, I know how to make money in music and still retain complete artistic control and I'm willing to go all the way. Are you? Contact me.

Influences: My main influence is obvious with the Razor blade: Dimebag Darrell. I started wearing the Razor Blade after he died in his honor, I pray I can do him justice.

When involved with Heavy Metal music it's hard not to cite certain Influences such as Toni Iommi (The Godfather!) and Jimmy Page, but I have studied and enjoy listening to Jimi Hendrix and Robin Trower's Albums.
My more modern influences are Zakk Wylde of Black Label Society, Dave Mustaine of Megadeth, Paul Gilbert (His Solo Records are amazing, and his Instructional Videos are perfect!) James Hetfield and Kirk Hammett of Metallica, (The Masters of the Riff), Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, and John 5 round out my list of major influences. Quite a bit of them? It's hard to narrow them down when your life revolves around music.

I will be the first person to admit that I am not wise.  I am not old enough to be wise.  But I do know what the meaning of my life is.  The meaning of my life is to be Happy.  I s...
