Reverend CHARGER 290 Electric Guitar (Deep Sea Blue) For Cheap
Description
Road tested and artist approved, the Reverend Guitars Charger 290 electric guitar is outfitted with top-notch woods and electronics for an unquestionably custom-shop look and feel. This rock-solid 6-string embodies all the sonic excellence of a premium instrument at a price that works for bedroom producers, gigging guitarists, and all musicians in between. Its korina body delivers a mellow sound with far-reaching resonance; it’s perfectly paired with a snappy roasted maple neck and silky matching fingerboard. Reverend 9A5 single-coil pickups in the bridge and the neck deliver that classic P-90 sound with some added “oomph” and clarity, made even better with a Bass Contour knob for additional fine-tuning. Pin-lock tuners make for lightning-quick string changes while keeping everything in tune. Finally, boutique accents like a Pure Tone jack, 10% pots and poly caps, and a treble bleed circuit add to the prestige of this showstopper.
Sturdy, lightweight woods deliver exceptional warmth and balance
Reverend’s consistency in quality and incredible tone is a hallmark of their brand, and it all starts with the woods. The company focuses on a no-compromise standard — their meticulously chosen woods combine long-lasting durability with room-filling resonance. Korina bodies are well known for their presence in boutique and custom-shop instruments, exuding velvety warmth while balancing lows, mids, and highs exceptionally well. The Charger 290’s roasted maple neck feels sturdy in the hands, holding up to humidity changes while out on the road and delivering that beloved “snap.” The matching roasted maple fingerboard feels just as exceptional as it looks, highly lauded for its smooth-as-glass texture and effortless playability in all positions.
Custom Reverend P-90s bring out the best in your instrument
Rather than rely on third-party pickups to get the job done, Reverend took it upon themselves to craft their own for the Charger 290. Loaded in both positions is a pair of custom-voiced single-coils, akin to vintage P-90s with slight tweaks to deliver a distinct sound. The 9A5 in the bridge bites just like a P-90 should, with added thickness and heat that works exceptionally well for modern genres and playing styles. Many players are quick to point out the clarity of the 9A5 in the neck position: it’s cleaner than your standard P-90 while possessing all of the smoothness and prominent mids of its inspiration. When you’re in need of a versatile workhorse, this impressive set of pickups is sure to give you a standout sound.
Elite-level appointments from head to heel
One strum is all it takes to experience the exquisite quality of Reverend’s guitars. The Charger 290 comes stock with several enhancements typically reserved for instruments more than double the cost. The result? A 6-string with an elite, pro-quality feel. The Bass Contour knob is a handy tool for tone shaping. It’s capable of tightening up flub and even changing the characteristics of your pickups — humbuckers can quickly morph into single-coils with this awesome mod! Like all of Reverend’s other offerings, the Charger 290 comes equipped with an upgraded jack courtesy of Pure Tone Technologies. Rather than employ the standard single contact, Pure Tone jacks use a pair of contacts for a tighter connection and a more consistent signal. Let’s not forget the treble bleed circuit for retaining your high end when rolling back the volume, which is made even better with 10% poly caps and pots for much more consistent performance. With a Reverend in your hands, you can rest assured that only the best components are under the hood.
