Gristle Goes 90! Reverend's NEW Greg Koch Signature Gristle 90!

We’re certainly digging these new Gristle 90s from our friends Greg Koch & Reverend Guitars! Building on the well-established, über cool Gristlemaster platform, Greg decided to refresh the lineup with a P90-pickup equipped option. And these ain’t no regular P90s…
Join us today as Jack walks through the basics and his impressions of this stunning new model from Reverend, and stay tuned to the channel for an upcoming chat with Greg himself, taking a deeper dive on the idea behind the guitar and what he values in the mighty P90 pickup. Gristle just kicked in to high gear!
If you’d like some more information about these new Reverend Gristle 90 guitars, follow the link below to our website and feast on the deets of the Bradford Beech Blue, Venetian Gold & Midnight Black hues!
Thank you as always for watching, take care and we’ll see you in the next video!

I can dig it! Man, I am 46 and was a teen in the 90's. Back then there was Fender Gibson and their less expensive divisions. Everything else seemed like a lesser guitar. These days it's so exciting because there are amazing guitars everywhere. This is fabulous example. Nobody is strapping on this darling and feeling like they are playing anything but a top tier instrument.

[@HandSolo2069]

THANK YOU for putting some real distortion on this! So many reviews play it only clean or with light drive. I want to hear those p90s SCREAM! 🤠

[@kateruckus]

Definitely Greg Koch personified as a guitar. Love it! 🎵

[@Sammywhat]

Always a pleasure to hear you play, Jack! Fire that thing back up and lets hear some clean tones?! Love that those pickups are so quiet. Totally looking forward to a Greg Koch interview!!

[@alxomnm]

Looks way better than a regular tele

[@pinkiewerewolf]

Mighty fine playing Jack. Awesome guitar, Reverend knocked it outta the park with this model.

[@gillhodges7267]

Such a great player. One of the best if not the best demo guys on KZbin.

[@mralgebro]

Bring these videos back! Love getting Jack's thoughts on the guitars.

[@lassesuurmunne8340]

Those are beasts! Sound absolutely incredible and look like a car from the 40s or something. Makes me think of old film 🎞 noir movies or something. My favorite Reverend guitar so far, I do love Greg’s gristlemaster as well though. Incredible playing as always, really complimented the guitar. I think Greg would be impressed, gristle approved playing can you dig it?

[@sassycat]

24¾" scale, 12" (Gibson) radius, bound ebony fingerboard... what's not to love? Nice to see Jack giving his Stones/Black Crowes chops a workout.

[@halfindy]

11:01 Your three bends make me smile!

[@chrispile3878]

Hey, Jack - it's NOT a longer scale length, it's Gibson scale.

[@AndrewReynolds1]

I was just about to point out it is Gibson scale length (24 3/4")

[@darrenc8776]

Sounds really nice and Bright.

[@hutch_hunta]

bright yes indeed thats really a nice description

[@darrenc8776]

@@hutch_hunta haha way to go on the details.

[@mmates007]

You make that guitar shine. Awesome player!

[@jameslatham2655]

If you were not watching someone plays this guitar you could easily think you were hearing a les paul. These guitars sound really big and resonate. To me they have that crunchy but clear depth of each string when strumming chords like the les paul does. Nice and fat sound without the traditional twanginess of most tele style guitars. I'm all in on these.

[@virtuososo]

Other than the Tele shape, it's closer to a Les Paul Special than anything else. Same scale length, set neck, ebony board, tune-o-matic, P90s... bonus tones and quiet. Might as well be all in!

[@paultrottier2860]

Wish they could have kept the cost inline with other models. Reverends signature models are getting up in price.

[@marmadukewinterbotham2599]

Very nice guitars, if only there was a no-Bigsby option!

[@MattyK-USA]

Great review, Jack. I am one of the lucky ones to have bought a Venetian Gold Gristle 90 from the first batch, and I couldn't be happier. Love my "Golden Gristle"! One thing that I hope comes through your demos, is just how incredibly VERSATILE this instrument is. When it comes to tones, it's the butcher, the baker, and the candlestick maker.

[@slimturnpike]

Nice Keefy riffs

[@chappyman1249]

Seriously Jack....one of the THE best players around. Always enjoy the vids! Keep up the great work. Big fan from the 🇺🇲!

[@CradleRawk]

Great playing as ever, Jack. Awesome looking and sounding axe, would love to hear some BB or Peter Green licks on the out of phase tone. Pricey for a non US build, but that’s not unheard of nowadays.

[@barry5462]

Fellas!..

[@PeteBreen]

Can you DIG IT??

[@sassycat]

WOOOOOOOOOO...

[@JaimeCerrada]

FELLAS!!

[@furbymetal83]

Ready to engage in vigorous rockcraft

[@MattyK-USA]

Time to engage in spirited musical congress! What?!?

[@darrenc8776]

Fiendish rock lord of both day and night

[@michaeljohnson8058]

Yay Jack & gristle 90 both sound great. Just my luck at 5:43 the camera goes for an extreme close up on picking hand and Jack rips off a suh-weet lick in 1st position! 😢

[@joeyjojo8200]

What pedals did you use in this video? Would love to know!

[@skye7690]

Those new P90's just sing.

[@richardelson3261]

top guitar and top vid. I have one of these on the way and can't wait. Nicely unique features but trad / classic tones and looks. Literally nothing I don't like.

[@steveshaw5773]

Great demo as always from Jack...he's an endless riff machine and then some!!! I recently bought a gremlin from you guys and just wondered what effects were used in the demo if any? Sounds Amazing!!!! Kind Regards in advance Steve.

[@frantisca]

These 3 guitars remind me a lot of the Duesenberg productions and I would not be surprised if they are manufactured in the same plant... Reverend has got a lot of proprietary stuff, between which their spring for the Bigsby. I have replaced the standard one I had with their version and it's a day and night difference: smooth, precise and keeps the guitar in tune, a bit like... Duesenberg ;-)

[@donkeydarko77]

I love Duesenberg guitars. I've been interested in this GK Reverend lineup, but I'm a small guy with small hands. These guitars seem to be oversized, which makes me wary. But they look and sound fantastic.

[@lurkingherkin]

I think reverend and duesenberg are both made in mirr music in Korea but I could be wrong

[@reverendg5937]

Nice Demo. What's in the signal path? Effects? Tone King Gremlin?

[@Bobby_Digital37]

That guitar looks gigantic!!!!

[@sassycat]

Imperial/metric conversion issues likely. 😏

[@darrenc8776]

Greg is 6 foot 6" so he had his guitar made bigger to look normal when he uses them

[@ibaneztubescreamer]

Buttersquatch...lol!

[@franckrichard8077]

Too bad it does not come with a fixed bridge, but I think it is removable.... I am interested in putting those pick ups in my 1999 Gibson Little Lucille !

[@mattw594]

There's a fixed bridge version, but it has the single-coil fluence pickups instead of P90s.

[@daviddorrian5349]

Exactly my thoughts, I'd have one if I could get it fixed bridge. I've been wanting a P90 guitar for ages and not fancied anything. I absolutely love this but don't get on with bigsbys

[@rafasounds2010]

I don't know what I like best - his playing or his hair

[@3cardmonty602]

I’d like to Hardtail that bad boy. Blue one sounds better.

[@chrisdrake447]

Dang, those are gorgeous! Only one improvement to suggest: Please paint the headstock the same colour as the body...

[@JohannesLabusch]

Get the black one..? It's the coolest one anyway.

[@nige99]

@@JohannesLabusch I agree im seriously thinking of doing the black one

[@franckrichard8077]

Does it come with an hard case or a gig bag ?

[@MDK2323]

Neither. Comes in a box. I had to buy a Rev hard case separately, and it didn't really seem to work perfectly with the Bisby. I'd go with a quality bag if I were you. Mono makes a nice one.

[@KevinMcLaren71]

How are those pickups going to go into an old or old style germanium fuzz?

[@kylebichler2258]

Probably as well as P90’s go into your mom.

[@leadguitarmiked]

Awesome demo, Jack!! I’m pretty sold on this thing!

[@telefrk49]

Total badass !!!

[@jamesflack8624]

Wow... That's all I got... Cheers 🍻

[@Peetie_Wheatstraw]

Nice sounds. I'm curious what the amp setup is.

[@Peetie_Wheatstraw]

@@themetallicat86 I see. The amp is shown in the video. Thanks!

[@TJauernigElectronics]

Nice review.

[@Starch1b2c3d4a]

Nice axe. Great playing

[@jackcolt6875]

Are those P90s battery powered?

[@AndrewReynolds1]

Yes

[@45zapatero]

If you push the little knob an active circuit "kicks in". So partially yes.

[@MrVanalen]

Are they nitro?

[@paulcowart3174]

Gloss I think unfortunately

[@xthexadvantagex]

@@paulcowart3174 nitro is glossy

[@burnocaster]

Was this entire demo through the Tone King Gremlin??

[@paulcowart3174]

Not sure which model but I just got a Gremlin and am absolutely blown away and I've been playing professional for 25 of my 45 years of playing

[@MrTruth-ul6gv]

Love the guitar but have a suggestion for future reviews. I think it would be helpful slightly less "jamming" and a bit more demo of the features. When you're doing the playing, you often do something very quickly to the controls, but you don't take the time to say, "let me switch between in-phase and out-of-phase so you can hear the difference" or "here's the difference between the "normal mode" or the "mid-boost" mode". You describe them well, but once you start playing, you adjust controls but your hands are moving too fast and the camera is too far away to see exactly what you're doing.

[@hibernative]

Love the guitar but not a huge fan of the pickups.

[@nige99]

Its a nice sounding guitar BUT will not stay in tune unless you wrap the strings around the middle roller and forget the bigsby arm altogether! I have a black one from you £1499 delivered in a flimsy cardboard box no case for that sort of money wtf!

[@huuss]

have you liked it sir ?

[@garymcaleer6112]

A raucous sawtooth is not my cup of tea.

[@thesmellycatjazz]

TIL Fishman makes P90s

[@inglettd]

What fuzz at 12:50?

[@kid.dynamite4918]

Spider Man?

[@paulcowart3174]

Ah the new Gristle Koch axe Very cool but think I like the original better Bigsby options on the Tele model would be kinda cool Ride that horse while it's hot Really should show case the Koch Greg amp....only thing that rivals the Tone Kings in my opinion

[@coreycann6751]

1900 for an overseas made guitar with a poly finish is a joke. And it doesnt even come with a usa made bigsby. Dude Reverend is insane

[@Little960]

''More of a rythym style'' are youy serious. Totally irrelevant comment. Have you heard Greg play lead guitar on this. It's totally a solo capable guitar. Great playing on your part by the way.

[@opposewoke-tyranny4681]

I'd rather buy the real thing, instead of some over priced knock-off.

[@thebadterrorists5323]

Fortunately Socialism hasn't fully taken over the woke world and we are blessed with a system that allows choice, three cheers for Capitalism.

[@Tom_SDM]

Ah yes, because Gibson famously sells a guitar that has an enlarged Tele body with a raised centre and modern active P90s. Or any guitar that comes close to the same spec for less than 2 grand.

[@xthexadvantagex]

Hip hip

[@JD-ey8hw]

So whats the knock off to this model? Cause this guitar is its own thing.
