Reverend Descent Baritone Electric Guitar With Rosewood Fingerboard - Purple Punch

The Reverend Descent baritone electric guitar is built to deliver low-tuned authority without feeling oversized or unwieldy. A slim, lightweight solid korina body keeps the response punchy and controlled, while the extended 26.75" scale gives lower tunings the tension and definition they need. A roasted maple bolt-on neck with a medium oval profile keeps the feel familiar under your hands, making it easy to move between heavy riffs, wide intervals, and articulate melodic lines.

Railhammer Chisel Pickups Keep the Low End Focused

A matched set of Railhammer Chisel pickups gives the Descent its tight, modern voice. The hybrid rail-and-pole design keeps the wound strings clear and controlled while letting the plain strings ring with definition. This prevents muddiness on the low strings and keeps chords, single-note lines, and layered parts articulate even under higher gain.

String-Through Bridge Reinforces Sustain and Clarity

The string-thru-body bridge anchors the strings through the korina body for efficient energy transfer and strong sustain. An aluminum ferrule block and stainless steel saddles improve attack and note separation, helping riffs stay punchy and chords remain defined. The setup is designed to handle heavier baritone string gauges while maintaining tuning stability.

Controls Are Tuned for Real-World Baritone Use

Volume, tone, and bass contour controls work alongside a three-way pickup switch to give you practical tone shaping without complexity. The bass contour control is especially useful for baritone applications, allowing you to tighten the low end for focused rhythm parts or open it up for fuller, heavier passages. Everything is positioned for quick adjustments mid-song.

Korina Body and Rosewood Fingerboard Balance Weight and Warmth

Solid korina construction keeps the Descent resonant and lively while maintaining a manageable weight for longer sessions. The roasted maple neck adds long-term stability with a dual-action truss rod, and the rosewood fingerboard introduces a slightly warmer feel while staying articulate across all 22 frets. White binding, chrome hardware, and a gloss polyurethane finish complete a durable, road-ready build.

A Purpose-Built Baritone for Heavy and Expansive Playing

If you want a baritone electric guitar that stays tight, clear, and responsive in B-standard tuning, the Reverend Descent gives you a focused platform that doesn’t fight back. From heavy riffs and layered studio parts to melodic lines that need definition, its extended scale, Railhammer pickups, and stable hardware let you explore lower registers with confidence. Strung with SIT 12–68 strings and designed for modern baritone work, it’s a tool built to expand your range without sacrificing control.
