RobRose Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 new Reverend Charger 290s... Wanted a guitar with P90s and liked the idea of something different...and had to go for the gold top/rosewood neck combo. Plays beautifully. Excellent neck and very nice vibe. VERY impressed with value for a mid-priced guitar. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2101/2471923770_c4c24e049b_o.jpg Nash-customized Gibson Les Paul, Godin Progression Plus Quilter MicroPro Mach 2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just love the fact that you have a shirt with reversed numbers on it to match your lefty guitar. Just kidding. Scott Fraser Scott Fraser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg B. Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Reverend P90s are great pickups. I love my Reverend so much that I'm fixing to get another one. They are one of the best values out there. Enjoy yours, Rob.

RobRose Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 Played it last night through my Mesa Lonestar at the electric jam I host. Without a doubt, among the tastiest clean tones of any guitar I own... Really quite nice. It'll take a while to get used to applying the P-90s to rockier applications... certainly great for blues though... Felt great to play -- the bass contour control on the Reverends is a revelation -- you can really dial in a broader array of thinner and thicker tones... Very pleased indeed with the purchase... I need to make a minor neck adjustment and slap on some Snake Oil Brand Rock strings and then she's totally good to go!

Bluesape Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Yeah, it's got it's own vibe - there was an Epi P90 LP there last night at the same time, and the additional wood of it was apparent: the Reverend sang higher and more stridently, just like the bolt-on that it is. The rigs were by no means equivalent: Joe's LP was through a Blues Jr. It would be cool to A-B them on the same rig. Never a DUH! moment! Well, almost never. OK, OK! Sometimes never!

Dave da Dude Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 GREAT lookin' axe!! Oh man, those Reverends look so snazzola, this could threaten to ignite a forum wide GAS explosion! I certainly HOPE so. I did love the P90 sound on the Godin LG P90 that I auditioned a while back. HMMmmmm... burrRRRrrp... Gotta' geetar... got the amp. There must be SOMEthing else I... "need".
