This solidbody electric effortlessly blends vintage with cutting-edge.
The Reverend Contender RB combines classic design with modern feel. This flat-top, single-cut electric features a set neck and a strategic chamber under the pickguard that both increases resonance and reduces weight. Equipped with Reverend's RetroBlast mini-humbuckers, the Contender RB delivers percussive yet smooth tone backed with plenty of energy for classic power chord crunch or rockabilly blues rhythms. Additional features include a solid korina body, pau ferro fingerboard, pin-lock tuners and a Bigsby B-50 for vibrato and harmonic bends.
