The Reverend Charger 290 is fat, raw and bluesy. Built to last for the barrelhouse and a lifetime of live gigs, it features a korina body and beautiful roasted maple neck and fretboard. Reverend 9A5 single-coil pickups provide the right amount of bite to cut through any mix, regardless of genre. The neck 9A5 is cleaner than a vintage P-90; the bridge is wound hotter and slightly thicker. A bass contour control tightens the low end or revoices the pickups for extra twang. Don't worry about losing treble at lower volumes—a treble-bleed circuit keeps it up no matter how quiet you get.

The 290 Charger won't fail you in long sets. Pin-lock tuners, a Triple-Tree string tree, Boneite nut and TOM bridge with a stoptail will keep you in tune all night. Other features include an angled neck heel, custom jack plate, Pure Tone jack and a hand-signed, initialed headstock.

    I love this guitar, It plays like a dream so easy to get around the fretboard and the sounds this guitar will give you are second to none. My only concern was that it weighs 9.3 pounds making it a bar stool guitar when playing out. I called Reverend about it and they said "must be a heavy piece of wood" Sure is but the sound and sustain made it a keeper despite the weight. I highly recommend it but havinf to order it on line leaves you with little choice and these are high demand guitars so I'm glad to have it but it DEFINETLY is NOT a lighter guitar.

  • I have been playing over 20 years and this guitar is amazing

    There is too much good to say about bthis guitarb to fit in the space provided. The nech is one of the best and smoothest I have ever played and the tone is fantasic. It can cover anything you like and do so beautifully. One e of my favorites and built to last with incredible tone. This guitar is VERY hard to put down and will soon become your go to guitar. Too much good to say about it becausr I can;t find anything wrong with it but putting it down is the biggest problem I have and that;s a good problem to have. This guitar is phenominal and you willNOT be sorry you bought it. It leaves you inspired. One of if not my favorite
