Reverend is the unheralded sleeping giant of guitars. Quality second to nobody and value so good your head will explode.

[@sidestyle05]

I was blown away when I got my Sensei recently...and I was already expecting quality! If they had a higher profile, they would be eating Gibson's lunch. Fender shouldn't be too comfortable either...Reverend might do the Tele better than Fender!

[@peterosipov400]

@@sidestyle05 they should do a pickup range then. Those Tele pickups they do are good, but just not my thing. And I have two Revs in my stable and I do love them both

[@allatsea2746]

@@peterosipov400 Well, they (sort of) do with the Ralhammers. I just put a Humcutter Nuevo in the neck position of my Reverend Reeves Gabrels and REALLY like it. Sounds more like a fat single coil than a P90 to my ears.

You probably dont care but does anyone know of a way to get back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost the password. I love any assistance you can offer me!

More Reverend reviews please!

[@paulandre3250]

Lee's playing is so good nowadays. He has improved a lot.

[@MisterRorschach90]

I mean when 90% of your day is playing dozens of different 5-150 thousand dollar guitars, you better improve. Lol

[@nathangray794]

jordan secrist cmon gear matters but not that much

[@ts4689]

Right. Lot's of playing and Danish Pete and Chappers who might give some hints...

[@Mark_Ocain]

Yeah he's getting rock-steady for sure. I think Pete has been tutoring him a bit

[@andertons]

If only 90% of my day was spent playing!! The videos are great fun, but there’s lots more to do at Andertons than just that! 👍👍🤘

[@davidconnelly]

Amazing sounds from both guitars on that jam at 25 minutes. That was outstanding.

[@grilledcheese1318]

I've been playing a Reverend since '09. Still my go-to.

[@robertangone582]

Epic jam. You guys are hardwired and dig deep all the time. Thanks for playing!

[@waynecribb4922]

Love these guitars.Pete looks so happy playing these. Awesome job

[@MoHogany1]

Appreciate the Reverend recognition. Fun video. Lots to like about Reverend guitars, especially the consistently excellent set up, right out of the box.

[@ericoswood1856]

Bought my first Reverend in 1998 and I still play them. Tone is second to none.

[@MaxRockatansky853]

I own two Reverends. Damn fine instruments. If youre on the fence just do it.

[@henkwesterik]

Great to see & hear how Lee's playing develloped over the years

[@TraneFrancks]

That first guitar Pete played with The Dane had some of the best guitar tones I've ever heard. Yow.

[@danielpage5531]

I wonder how the scale length, headstock and Bigsby made it sound so different to the Flatroc?

[@quadrogong1111]

I had my mind set on another model, that video probably sold me on the Contender RB too, straight up, that’s like the most perfect, midrange mini bucker growl ever.. I’m a bolt on neck,tele,Flatroc guy too exclusively.. I’m sold

[@leightnite3056]

Those are honestly gorgeous sounding!

[@terryhand]

"On the Waterfront". Decades before Rocky or Raging Bull

[@stanlee5465]

And it was Marlon Brando... These guys were WAY off! lol

[@MK-oz2lf]

Actually LaMotta does quote On The Waterfront in Raging Bull at the end of the film.

[@alessandrorossini8704]

Great guitars and Pete's playing always inspiring, thanx danish boy!

[@JGlassy]

Just saw this post finally. I’ve got a Flatroc and love it. Superior build quality, great feel, stays in tune forever with the locking tuners, and nice unique tone!

[@pinkiewerewolf]

If I'd seen this post when it came out, I'd have saved some serious coin! About to be rectified, my Flatroc should arrive tomorrow.

[@davidjohnston4345]

What is the neck profile like

[@davidjohnston4345]

Slim or fat

[@JGlassy]

@@davidjohnston4345 I forget the exact radius, but a touch on the slim side rather than fat I believe. Plays like butter regardless.

[@SeemsLikeSomething]

This is blowing my mind! First time I’ve ever heard any lower frequency tones on an Anderton’s demo! Lol, they seem to eq both the guitars themselves and the recorded audio without much low end and this is SO much nicer sounding! Some low end yayyyhh!!

[@C64Queeg500]

Great show guys, very tempting.

[@Russell_Optics]

The emerald green Flatrock looks and sounds and sounds amazing. Not only do we get to see some really nice guitars, but we also get the benefit of learning those incredibly cool "expensive" barre chords from Pete that sound awesome !!!

[@SlashnKashmir]

I recently bought Reverend Reeves Gabrels for my birthday. Amazing guitar so versatile i can change tonal characteristic of the guitar immidately.

[@davedavem]

If a coil split is all or nothing, the bass contour is everything in between. Love it!

[@denismguitar1552]

By the way, the Club King starts as a solid Korina block, with a hollow carve, and a solid spruce top. Hollow on the bass side and under the pick guard.

[@Newnodrogbob]

Yeah, that bass roll off for gain sounds is a great feature on a guitar. It's what half of us use EQ pedals for, more or less...

[@paulsmith6381]

Yes, Lee continues to get better!

[@AlexisGuitars]

Love the look of these guitars. Suprisingly the mini humbucker version stood out as my favourite

[@pcau]

Awesome guys, playing awesome guitars. What else could we ask for?? Thank you Pete and Captain :)

[@RichardSheehan]

Wow, the best Reverends yet? I'd like to think so! Great looks and sounds.

[@mdenison2567]

I will never, ever understand how there are people out there in the land of the interweb that dislike these videos. cracking once again

[@Millo1868]

That green Flatrock sounds just awesome.

[@SG_Dave]

When you're talking about the headstock to body shape difference it's juxtaposition you're looking for, Lee.

[@MarkusvanAardtBusinessComm]

I have a Pete Anderson p90 and simply love it. My fave over most others I have owned

[@sgtmac62]

The mini-pups and the wiring configurations is fabulous. Best guitar I've heard in a long time, sans' Dane.

[@justie1220]

That was a righteous intro jam! Very interested in that rock orange contender

[@mickstick5112]

That red Buckshot with the binding looks great, sounds great, and is nicely priced.

[@thesnapperkeeper]

That Metallic Emerald finish is sick

[@rjester21]

I 💜 when purple rain shows up in a solo Pete!!💜💜💜💜

[@edadams5679]

I got my (left handed) Double Agent from you guys, and man, that guitar is a real game changer of a workhorse!

[@davidjohnston4345]

Is the neck profile slim or fat?

[@str8shooter36]

The chops and tone were top notch.

[@ralphwest8156]

Great review' first black one form' ...kudos with 'Spirit of the radio' RIP Neil.

[@tonycorlett2099]

Beautiful guitars and a gorgeous sound they all produce. They are close to the tone I would like to create. I am very impressed especially with the Clubking and the Flatroc.

[@quadrogong1111]

I own two flatrocs, I ignore all my other guitars now..all collect dust, I pick up one tele and an acoustic occasionally, but I ignore an entire rack of 11 really nice guitars..ever since I got my first flatroc,now I’m looking at my third Reverend.

[@MrRyanha]

Thanks guys.... good to hear the new Reverend range. Hope you can do the 290 when it comes in. I’ve bought the Contender 290 off You.

[@jh-nb]

No joke that QVC moment got me sold.

[@nellayema2455]

I have 2 Reverend guitars--The Jenn Wasner Charger HB, and a Silverburst Volcano RA. What I really love about Reverend guitars is the tonal variety I get with the treble-bleed, which all Reverend guitars have, and the bass contour knob.

[@quadrogong1111]

Smartest innovation since locking tuners..it’s amazing.. I wish every guitar I own had it.

[@davidjohnston4345]

Are the necks slim or fat on reverend guitars

[@rrichards146]

Great sounding pickups

[@pinkiewerewolf]

Damn, those sounded totally amazing. You guys and Reverend are gonna have me eating cup of soup for a few years.

[@rickhill6277]

Love Reverend Guitars, just wish they made MORE models in Left Handed Versions!!

[@erellvillalba]

That Flatroc sell chords sold me this one! Nice one! Will buy one with bigsby…

[@MisterRorschach90]

I have to admit. I’m usually against buying brands I don’t know, but that white flatroc is pretty nice.

[@quadrogong1111]

I was surprised that the talnico bridge pu on the buckshot sounded so similar to the retroblast on the Flatroc, those guitars sound so similar!

[@jcwear89]

They sound superb

[@budgetguitaristcom]

I like Reverend as a brand. I've never seen them in my area, but I'd love to try one.

[@marcomelillo4590]

My favourite guitar brand!

[@malthus101]

It was "On the Waterfront" and that line from that movie, was re-quoted in "Raging Bull" by De Niro's character.

[@fritsvanzanten3573]

Good sounds!

[@mattbelmont978]

Always love the videos, this one was extra fun. The little chord lesson in there was a special treat! Thanks for the great content!

[@Paul_Lenard_Ewing]

I love when the captain plays straight blues. I really do not think he knows just how damn good he is! Seriously!!!

[@gibbolp7618]

Monster licks there Captain 🤘🤘🤘

[@peyotepete4903]

Damn good playing Captain!

[@waynecribb4922]

The headstock and body "complement " each other. 😊

[@MuadDib74]

Those chords have always been my go-to for chilled strumming. Originally got them from Prodigal Son by Iron Maiden. They just feel really cool to play :-)

[@LawtonChiles]

Lee is improving every week with his melodies.

[@mickdenny1677]

Great tones , though the older 15th Anniversary Flatroc in gold or silvet sparkle with the Revtron pickups and Bigsby is awsome .

[@stavrost6559]

Captain is on fire today 🔥

[@newmanfertig886]

Oh my gosh! I can’t remember you guys having so much fun evaluating a guitar like ever. You must really like it. And dare I say the older designs might be getting just a little bit boring for you. Great show guys appreciate it.

[@Josbornevonosborne]

Lee is improving his playing constantly

[@jensenbell]

Look at a pic of a 70s Gretsch Super Axe. These have that vibe.

[@johnjgibson6807]

On the Play Off Captain Got That One I Believe 👍👍🎶🎶🎸

[@virginiegagne9809]

Gretsch had a SuperAxe model in the 80's … looked a lot like this. You may remember Rick Springfield sporting one in a few pictures...

[@paulvontyrant3120]

The Contender reminds me of the Gretsch Super Axe. One of these days, I'll have to add a Reverend to the collection.

[@quadrogong1111]

Paul Von Tyrant never thought of that, good catch..like an offset Les Paul

[@johnfritzenjr.1240]

Great guitars

[@bluesysamurainao4557]

Keep on rock!

[@nickymurray6753]

Great stuff as ever guys. By the way, you mention around 30.35s in about the Bigsby getting in the way of the pickup selector. I bought this very guitar this weekend and had the same problem, however in the case comes a spare standard size Bigsby spring which solves this issue. The default lower (shorter springed) tremolo arm is something Reverend are trying to innovate I believe, Im sure you guys will know more. Though this might be worth a mention :)

[@bartholomewbarnes8216]

Video Suggestions: Making this on some of my favorites as well as yours which may be my favorite. REAL player. The KZbin "GAS" confusion effect. I seem to have gotten myself into a Rut where I have so much "GEAR" I'm just confused. "Probably" why I for years and still do reach for my Taylor . Good news front. Landed a 12 Martin When they Zig, I ZAG. But really want to become a better Electric player in 2020. I'm just geared out. Two whole setups. One pure digital. One mostly analog. Both have their flavors. Neither is unique to me. Whereas I pickup my Taylor it's me, every time. Have a fantastic Summer.

[@stationlightyears1532]

Oh man, gear saturation is a real problem! I'm a very sub-average Guitar player, primarily a Drummer and keyboard player second. The sheer amount of stuff I have for Drums and Synths is quite absurd, I have to just strip right down every so often and focus on the absolute basics. It can be quite refreshing and something of a reboot, quite a kick when you find that sweet spot that's just you.

[@benlogan430]

Remember the gear doesn’t matter. You sound like you no matter. A musicians voice is in the hands and the mind. The phrasing, feel, groove and the note choice make the voice. The gear just gives you a tone.

[@Ndlanding]

@@benlogan430 Can't say I agree. When I play, say, a Fender i feel different, sound different and play different music than when I play a Gibson or humbuggery guitar, and playing an acoustic is a million times different, even when playing a lead part.

[@larrydj549]

Those reverends are growling!

[@geraldgetskow3420]

Personally, I come here to list the Jams by Danish Pete and the Captain first and then marvel at some of the guitars.

[@MK-oz2lf]

The very Contender line was said in On The Waterfront and in Raging Bull.

[@Mark_Ocain]

What I'd like is one of these with a Rickie style rubber set high output single coil with similar electrics

[@toasty.nihilist]

i got a Reverend Six Gun from you guys and i tell you what, those roasted maple pickups are STUNNING

[@darylpugh5104]

Roasted pick ups? I bet they're a bit hot!

[@hamishsummers8585]

What I've seen of reverend has certainly piqued my interest. Will you be covering their basses for us fat-strings?

[@TheRealMarxz]

Lee's face 2:25 getting in some very Steven "Little Steve" Van Zandt action happening

[@mattmcg3760]

I never would have thought Pete would find the reach around so taxing!

[@sam_elvsen]

That intro.. 😂, just watched the video past night time!

[@jeffreyadams4952]

Reverend is headquartered in Toledo Ohio Midwest great guitars

[@ransombaggins9301]

That Contender sounds great and looks great, but that switch placement would drive me crazy.

[@jasondeli]

First off I love the channel. And I appreciate you guys still putting out content during all this covid stuff, but I'm really over the separate room format. Could you guys do something like that pedal show is doing with plexiglass glass between you two.

[@Ndlanding]

Or clingfilm.

[@NiqScott]

I'm waiting for them to review the Unknown Hinson signature Reverend.

[@UNEAKinfluence]

They probably won't be. Hinson was dropped from Reverend for derogatory comments made to Dolly Parton.

[@quadrogong1111]

This just reinforced my opinion that the Reverend FLATROC is the most raw, growling,grainy, grinding, most badass, most versatile sounding guitar since the telecaster

[@gaberodriguez7938]

Hey it’s Kevin!

[@travisjohnson7065]

Amen. I have one and love it. And don't forget that it also does beautiful clean, melodic, and even jazzy stuff.

[@jez6345789]

Sound really nice I would have to swap the switch and make the Bass Contour the last one as would use the pickup switch way more than the bass contour which is a shame

[@therealtech833]

On some Reverend models the bass contour knob is last, for example the Jetstream RB. You should check their website, they got nearly every configuration you can think of.

[@PolytheneBoy]

As if I wasn't already sold on Reverend Guitars!

[@eventheoddss]

Let’s go my Bois

[@Aint1S]

Reminds me of a JAGUAR with tele lines shaped into it. 🤔 That's why it can stay on your leg and not flip off. If it were Les Plop, it would Plop onto the floor the second you take your hand off of the neck...

[@craigtodd8297]

I want the Jan Cyrka tone

[@stuartmacdonald5361]

Made in Japan guitars have been some of the highest quality made for over 40 years. and don't let the Captain tell you any different. I have quite a few made in Japan guitars spread from the 80's to 2012. Not only are they as good as a USA or any other country you care to mention, they are quite often better. Basically I would say that the best guitars made in the 1980's were made in Japan.

[@quadrogong1111]

The rhythms from that contender RB are near perfect, right between Gibson fat and jangly gretsch.. this video alone convinced me to try one.

[@PapaMikeOfDenver]

Pete's "expensive chords" on the Club King reminded me a lot of Killer of Giants from Ozzy's Ultimate Sin album... love it...
