Reverend Reeves Gabrels Signature RG-SUS Venetian Gold

The Reverend Reeves Gabrels Signature RG-SUS is here presented in the latest Venetian Gold colourway. Reverend’s signature models are identical to the guitars used on stage by their artists, and the RG-SUS is no different. The 2020 RG-SUS has evolved to meet Reeves’s preferred ergonomics, with the previous slanted headstock being replaced with a more traditional configuration with triple string tree. The RG SUS is one of Reverend's most in-demand models; the combination of an RG signature Railhammer Pickup in the bridge and Sustainiac in the neck results in an unbeatable marriage of powerful tone and controllable feedback.

Merchant City Music is one of the largest Reverend dealers in the world, stocking an enormous range of Reverend guitars, on display and ready to play. If buying online you can be rest assured that you will receive a perfectly setup example shipped fast straight to your door via safe, secure courier.

REVEREND REEVES GABRELS SIGNATURE RG-SUS VENETIAN GOLD WITH ROASTED MAPLE NECK

The build quality of this guitar is spectacular, especially for the asking price! The Reverend Reeves Gabrels RG-SUS in Venetian Gold is one of the Cure guitarist's signature models. He is also famed for working with David Bowie and other big-name artists. Utilising Korina for the body, this guitar has a nice weight and plenty of resonance.

Bolted onto the body is Reverend’s now-famous, ultra-playable Roasted Maple neck. Reverend really pioneered the introduction of Roasted Maple outside the high-end, boutique market, and many other brands are now following suit. This neck not only feels stunning, but is more resistant to temperature and humidity, improving tuning stability and sustain. The Reeves Gabrels Signature now comes with a 12” radius bound Ebony fretboard, with gloss black headstock face. Reverend have created a very comfortable body and neck with the Reeves Gabrels guitar.

RAILHAMMER RG SIGNATURE BRIDGE PICKUP AND SUSTAINIAC NECK PICKUP

The Reverend Reeves Gabrels RGSUS comes with some pretty amazing hardware. The signature RG Railhammer Bridge pickup offers a tight bottom end and a fat high end which drives hard and cuts through the mix like a knife, even with heavy overdrive. With the Sustainiac System, you can create controllable, endless feedback and sustain at any volume. When off, the Sustainiac operates as a typical humbucker. When on, the system produces a magnetic pulse that drives the strings into sustain. A toggle switch offers three modes: Fundamental Mode allows a note or a chord to go on seemingly forever, Harmonic Mode dramatically morphs the sustaining note into a higher harmonic, and Mix Mode is an exhilarating combination between the two.

An extremely solid and stable WVS50 II Wilkinson Trem has been fitted - one of the best non-locking tremolo bridges we have ever come across at Merchant City Music. The trem now features another new Joe Naylor invention, the Vari-Claw. The Vari-Claw allows you to easily switch between 3 springs in the middle hooks of the claw for a firm feel, or 2 springs on the outside recessed hooks of the claw for a soft feel, with little or no adjustment to the claw itself. The Pinlock tuners help to keep it stable. There is also a cavity behind the trem to allow backward motion too.
