Reverend

Description

The Reverend Buckshot is a great take on a classic single cutaway-style guitar. The offset body is korina, a tonewood usually found in vintage and boutique guitars. Roasted maple necks are the hallmark of high-end instruments; the one on the Buckshot has a beautiful caramel color. With a medium oval profile and angled neck heel, your hands will scoot up and down the roasted maple fretboard with ease.

The Buckshot is all about the pickups. The Greasy T single coil at the bridge delivers fat tone with bite and a percussive attack. The Retro Blast at the neck is full and warm, but it’s a bit leaner than a full-sized humbucker. A bass contour control revoices the pickups. The treble-bleed circuit keeps the highs when the volume is low. If you want vintage twang that's more versatile, the Buckshot is the guitar for you.

The Buckshot employs pin-lock tuners for super-fast string changes and exceptional tuning stability. Other features include custom dome knobs, a Triple Tree string tree, Pure Tone jack, TOM bridge with stoptail, Boneite nut and a hand-signed, initialed headstock.

    I use this at churches. It would have been a 5 star grade if I did not have to replace the Bridge Pickup. The ceramic magnet Greasy T Bridge pickup had a bit of a sterile sound to my ears. I replaced it with a TV Jones Starwood Bridge Pickup. Now it sounds great. Note to anyone else doing this mod. To keep the pickups in phase I had to solder the black wire to the terminal point, and solder the white wire to ground. The combination of the TV Jones Starwood and the Retroblast mini humbucker in the Middle position really sounds great for cleans. The Retroblast has a nice tone for blues and jazz. While the TV Jones Starwood really hits the rock tones nicely. The fretboard and guitar body have a professional feel. I rarely use the bass contour knob, but I can see some potential there for tone adjusting.
