Reverend Gristlemaster Greg Koch Signature Guitar – Orchid Pink Reverend

Fishman Greg Koch Gristle-Tone Signature pickups are hum-free, boast extra clarity and treble shimmer, and a push button boost on the control plate kicks in the midrange gristle. Conveniently recharges with USB port at the input jack. For more information refer to the Fishman User Guide in the Support section of our website.

The genuine Wilkinson Staggered Brass Saddle bridge features uniquely shaped compensated brass saddles for perfect intonation and extra sustain, and a heavy duty steel bridge plate for serious twang.

Roasted Maple is heat treated at over 300° F to remove sugars, moisture, and impurities. This maple is lighter, more stable, and has a beautiful caramel color. The result is an exceptional maple neck that will require less seasonal adjustment, and boasts a rich vintage look!

Korina (aka White Limba) is a medium-light weight wood, highly prized for consistency and tonal qualities. Often found in boutique and vintage instruments, all Reverends feature Korina bodies. A highly resonant wood, Korina is a key factor to producing our lively, responsive instruments that are rich in harmonics.

The strategically placed chamber underneath the pickguard reduces weight, and turns up the body resonance for a more lively and responsive tone.

The paint on a Reverend is thinner than most production guitars, allowing the body to vibrate more freely, for a more resonant and lively tone. Thick finishes might look a little ‘slicker’, but at Reverend, tone is a top priority. Our finish is also UV cured, which means it’s 100% dry from day one, unlike vintage-style nitrocellulose finishes, which can take years to fully dry.

A thumbwheel under the tuner pushes a steel pin up through the post, locking the string in place for exceptional tuning stability and super-fast string changes.

Every Reverend is hand initialed and serial numbered on the back of the headstock by one of our highly skilled technicians who sets up, inspects, and tests every instrument.v

We took the traditional barrel knob and added a white dot, which lets you easily see where your knob rotation is set. Simple, but effective.

We use “Boneite,” a synthetic bone nut, that is more consistent than natural bone, on all Reverend instruments. It reduces friction, allowing the strings to slide through the nut slots smoothly, improving tuning stability.

This patent-pending string tree has an extended bar to hold down three strings at a time with just one tree, eliminating G string buzz in the nut slot.

Two extra bolts increase mounting pressure of the neck by fifty percent. This makes a stronger neck connection, which improves sustain, tuning stability, and neck alignment.
