2016 Reverend Double Agent OG Electric Guitar

This is a guitar that does a lot of things well. Reverend builds play well when setup nicely and have interesting features that set them apart from other makes. For instance, this has a Tele-style control layout, Gibson-style stringing, and Fender design cues and 25 1/2" scale length. The body has binding and metallic finish, but the binding actually follows the top contouring which is a pretty slick effect.

Its pickups are "rawk" in nature -- a P90 at the neck and a humbucker at the bridge -- and give plenty of heft to your tone so you can drive an amp (or your pedals) nicely, but on the upper bout there's a third knob that's actually a bass roll-off. As you roll it off, the overall sound of the instrument changes from a more Gibson-like, fatter punch to a more Fender-like, clean and bright and twangy. I've experienced this on other instruments now and then but in the case of this guitar it's so well-matched with the pickups that it really does, in effect, give you a "second guitar" of sounds to use. Well done!

It's only lightly-used so all we had to do was a quick setup and it was ready to go.

Condition notes: it's pretty dang clean but does have a little light scratching here and there that's, really, non-obvious. I can't see it in any of the photos. The hardware has a little tarnish in the "playing areas" around the pickguard and polepieces and there's pickwear on the pickguard. It looks to have been gigged  or played/loved at least for a little bit.


It comes with: no case, sorry!
