Description

The Kingbolt Air 390 turns Reverend's compact semi-hollow platform into a much broader switching instrument without covering the guitar in extra controls. The Reverend Kingbolt Air 390 semi-hollow electric guitar combines a routed mahogany body and full-length center block with a solid spruce top, 25.5" roasted maple neck, roasted maple fingerboard, three hum-cancelling Steelhead P90s, a five-way selector and push-pull Studio Switch for seven pickup combinations. Passive Bass Contour and a Wilkinson WVS50 IIK tremolo extend that range further, giving players a flexible P90 platform for clean work, driven textures and expressive pitch control.

Mahogany and Spruce Open Up the Compact Body

Reverend begins with a solid mahogany slab, routes the body around a full-length center block and adds a solid spruce top. The surrounding chambers give the Kingbolt a more responsive semi-hollow character, while the central core provides a substantial foundation for the pickups and tremolo. This construction adds depth to the instrument's response without changing its compact proportions.

Three Steelhead P90s Create Seven Pickup Combinations

Steelhead P90s occupy the bridge, middle and neck positions as Reverend's hum-cancelling, high-output evolution of the classic P90 format. The five-way selector handles the primary combinations, while pulling the Studio Switch on the master tone control adds neck plus bridge and all three pickups for seven total settings. Passive Bass Contour adds another layer by rolling off low frequencies, letting players tighten the P90s toward a leaner, twangier response without changing pickups or reaching for an external EQ.

Roasted Maple Fingerboard Defines This Neck Configuration

A roasted maple neck carries Reverend's Medium Oval profile across a 25.5" scale, keeping the Kingbolt Air 390 grounded in familiar modern electric-guitar proportions. This configuration uses a roasted maple fingerboard with a 12" radius and 22 frets, plus a 43 mm Boneite nut. A dual-action truss rod adjusts from the headstock and Reverend Pin-Lock tuners secure the strings for straightforward restringing and setup.

Wilkinson Tremolo Adds Another Layer of Control

The Wilkinson WVS50 IIK tremolo gives the guitar an expressive pitch system to match the breadth of its electronics. Subtle chord shimmer, vibrato and wider pitch movement sit alongside a pickup layout that can move from individual P90 positions to broader blended combinations. Pin-Lock tuners and the Boneite nut complete the string path, while the full-length center block keeps a solid foundation beneath the bridge and pickups.

A Flexible P90 Platform Without a Crowded Interface

Three Steelhead P90s, seven pickup combinations and passive Bass Contour give the Kingbolt Air 390 a broad range of sounds through a straightforward control layout. Semi-hollow construction and the Wilkinson tremolo add physical response and pitch movement without obscuring that straightforward workflow. Put seven pickup combinations, semi-hollow depth and expressive vibrato to work with the Reverend Kingbolt Air 390 semi-hollow electric guitar.
