Oli Brown endorsed by T-Rex Engineering

Oli is proud to be endorsed by T-Rex and uses their Gristle King on stage.

Developed especially for Greg Koch and is a combination of the features of the DGTM and the Luxury Drive, offering a wide variety of boost and overdrive possibilities. The Gristle, Tone, Gravy and Flavour controls works as on the DGTM, the More control works as the chicken head on the Luxury Drive, and in addition to that the DGTM has two new toggles. The Gristle King gives you
two effects, plus extra tonal possibilities, in one compact unit.

Oli Brown endorsed by GearSkinz.

“Standard flight cases are heavy, bulky and not really as necessary when I’m on the road touring, Even so, when I initially heard about GearSkinz cases, I was sceptical about how they would stand up to touring as they appeared to be too light. I could not have been more wrong. Gearskinz are stunning cases, they’re lightweight and sturdy and give my amps all the protection they need on the road.”
