He was previously endorsed by Ola Englund's Solar guitars brand. :alien:

Could Trey follow suit soon?

i don't think that's ever been treys style - i think he has even turned down endorsement offers over the years

Correct. Because he highly modifies them and uses bodies and necks and hardware from different guitars.

In one of the few rambling interviews he's done in recent years he stated that he only buys used guitars and won't ever do an endorsement. But didn't Jeff Hanneman have an endorsement but continue to use his old guitars from other brands?

didn't he get a sig from Dean a few years back? or was that just some one-off custom?

i remember reading that too. i kind of admire the fact that trey doesn't do guitar endorsements. also there was that time bc rich used an image of him without his permission and he got a free guitar out of it :redneck:

dunno about jeff though, if he hadn't any endorsement it wasn't as blatant as kerry king
