Reverend Charger 290 Reverend Charger 290, it’s fat, raw and bluesy but with just the right amount of bite to cut through the mix. A total workhorse of a guitar that’s clean and twangy enough for country, but use the bass contour control and it becomes thick enough for rock. All Reverend Guitars are uniquely designed by founder Joe Naylor in Toledo, Ohio. Manufactured in Korea to specification and brought back to Reverend HQ where they are checked over and set up to provide the best playing experience once delivered to the customer. We have regular orders arriving in from Reverend. So if the colour you are after is not in stock it can be back ordered and will be here within a couple of months. Contact us to find out when our next shipment is due. Custom Reverend Pickups Reverend design their our own proprietary custom pickups, to achieve the best tonal match with their instruments. Reverend pickups are also specifically designed for each position, for balanced volume and tone when switching. Roasted Maple Neck Roasted Maple is heat treated at over 300° F to remove sugars, moisture, and impurities. This maple is lighter, more stable, and has a beautiful caramel color. The result is an exceptional maple neck that will require less seasonal adjustment, and boasts a rich vintage look! Reverend Bass Contour This passive bass roll-off is great for tightening up the low end, or re-voicing the pickups. It can make a humbucker sound like a single-coil, or give a P-90 that classic twang. Variable pickup voicing at your fingertips! Korina Light Weight Body Korina (aka White Limba) is a medium-light weight wood, highly prized for consistency and tonal qualities. Often found in boutique and vintage instruments, all Reverends feature Korina bodies. A highly resonant wood, Korina is a key factor to producing our lively, responsive instruments that are rich in harmonics.
