Reverend Jetstream HCB in Violin Brown
The Reverend Jetstream HCB comes stage ready right out the box. Reverend have thought about every component of their guitars to give you a pro quality instrument at an amazing price.
We've always been huge fans of Railhammer's Humcutter pickups. These pickups capture all of the best traits of a P90 without the noise. The Humcutter is effectively a completely silent P90 and the clarity is insane! On the Jetstream HCB, two Nuevo 90's are fitted, featuring all the fat lower mids, raw attack, and greasy tone you'd expect, plus the tonal balance and enhanced response of the Railhammer design. The result is a guitar capable of monster rock tones as well as funky pop. The bass contour control on the Jetstream HCB rolls off some bass frequencies and completely revoices the pickups. You can get Tele twang from this guitar and creamy jazz tones too.
Reverend have also fitted a Bigsby B-50 trem system to the Jetstream HCB, but not without some modifications of their own. Reverend’s secret weapon for Bigsby’s is their soft-touch spring, which transforms the feel for a much more intuitive “broken in” action. This is combined with Reverend’s own roller bridge and Boneite nut, resulting in a supremely smooth vibrato which would be almost unrecognisable to Bigsby users of old. Reverend’s pin lock tuners are also an integral part of the picture, providing a highly stable foundation which allows the vibrato to be operated without fear of nasty string slippages. The Triple-Tree 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.
There's also wizardry going on under the bonnet/hood. Reverend use Alpha control pots with a +-10% rating making them more consistent and the type of thing normally reserved for expensive boutique guitars. The volume pot features a treble bleed circuit. This is a popular aftermarket modification which preserves the treble when you roll back the volume control. Without this a guitar starts to sound dull and lifeless as you roll off the volume. Reverend use better quality capacitors for their tone controls and an amazing new upgraded jack by Pure Tone Technologies. The Pure Tone jack has dual contacts for improved grip, audio signal and reliability. The most dependable guitar jack available.
The Reverend Jetstream HCB in Violin Brown is one seriously cool guitar that would be an asset to any guitar player’s collection.
