"Hey, I'm Rebecca Dirks" "And I'm Danish Pete from Andertons." Yes please. That'd be incredible.

[@musicunicorn4368]

Yeeesssssssss rig rundown

[@haf816r]

Matt Snyder gaahhhh, I miss Rebecca Dirks!!

[@floatmeon]

The tone Rob gets off that first guitar with the three p90s is absolutely killer

[@dannyrivers3922]

I want that!

[@5olas]

Reverend makes incredible guitars and give you more for your money than from the AAA companies. (Fit and finish, switching options, custom pickups, etc.) Don't take my word for it, try them yourself.

[@onlyguitars]

I tried one for the first time a couple of days ago and was so surprised in a great way. Loved it! I could see it was a very high-quality build, felt great, was gorgeous, and just wanted to take it home. Will get one at some point, defnitvely

[@DejMills]

Honestly these are some of the best sounding guitars I've heard

[@vdhaze6604]

Underrated guitar brand The bass roll on is wonderful, never thought p90s could sound that huge

[@worshiptutorials]

The bolt-on neck models are 6 bolt. The smaller two screws are pick-guard screws and are meant to keep the plate attached to the body when you remove the neck, which is a nice touch. Great video guys!

[@DerekBarolet]

Worship Tutorials holy crap WT on an Andertons video two favorite youtubes combines

[@lyric.kayden]

Worship Tutorials actually they are neck plate screws the two smaller ones which hold the neck plate in place if the need for removing the neck is ever needed. The pickguard is on the front of a guitar, not the back. That square metal piece on the back where the neck joins to the body is called a neck plate.

[@officialWWM]

Lyric Klein even Reverend describes them as scratchplate screws. It's because they are the same screws used to hold the scratchplate on.

[@zounds13]

@@lyric.kayden maybe if you read WT's comment again you will realize that he already knew the things you insisted on "teaching" him. He obviously only called the two small screws pickguard screws to describe their size, and he had also correctly described their function.

[@captaincatastrophe5143]

Jaysus, tell you editor he is amazing. I love that he just picks up on the humor and makes it better.

[@Pattamatt1998]

Picked up a Reverend Sensei RA earlier this year and I couldn't be happier with it, it's such a solid guitar.

[@craigparse1439]

LOVE the P90 pickups. I have a PRS SE One Korina and it's my favorite... one pickup... one knob... infinite possibilities.

[@scottbeare2251]

This was a very interesting session with Chappers and the Captain - I am very impressed with Reverend guitars now! Nice job, guys!

[@Lazerlighter]

These things honestly just blew my socks off. That tone on the 390 is insane!

[@BillDutton]

Love Reverend guitars! I have a Flatrock and a Charger 290...simply stunning looking, sounding and playing instruments.

[@coffeehouseartist]

I have 3 Reverends: The Rick Vito, Club King RT and the Pete Anderson RT. They are very fun guitars, I think everyone should have one in their collection. It's not easy to find your "chosen one" because they make so many kind with different sounds and styles, but when you do find one, you'll get that feeling you get when you make a new friend.

[@guitarjay325]

Excellent editing to whoever put those effects and changes together!!! (I think rob and captain are slowly making things more challenging for you!)

[@sonnycrocket]

The double cutaway with a p90 in the bridge.. Stunning..

[@Garrett_Hale]

Hey Chappers and Captain, keep up the great work guys. I look forward to watching a new video of you guys reviewing new guitars, amps, pedals, etc.

[@SebasHoning]

Yes! Cool to see some shots from the range in the store at the beginning of the video! That's a cool thing to become a theme with all demoes!

[@steve6548]

Hey Rob and the Captain, greetings from the USA. Some time ago I watched one your videos on how to play standing up, something I have always struggled with. I took your advise and bought a good guitar strap, and started practicing. The real benefit was to my posture while playing seated. My back would ache, and I would have pain in my right shoulder, and my the muscles in my right arm would tense. Now when I play seated, I use my strap as when playing while standing, letting the guitar hang from the strap. My posture improved, my picking hand "found" its ideal position on the bridge, and my playing has really improved. Now I play without pain, and practicing and playing is much more enjoyable. That one tip really made a difference. Thanks, and cheers.

[@brianneal4597]

That Jetstream sounds fantastic. The Sensei line are great guitars, they have great sounding humbuckers as well. Would love to see more of the Reverend line, particularly the Double Agent OG, and the Mantas. More with the Sheriff too please!

[@chrismorgan7494]

I'm eyeballing that Jetstream. Love the idea of 3 P90s. They look amazing too.

[@tjnugent62]

The bass roll on and off pot is one of the most important aspects to these guitars.

[@markwhitelaw7192]

Jestream 390! Have one and love it! Great guitars, wish more stores carried them.

[@chrismorgan7494]

How's the neck feel? How's the neck pup sound?

[@LeeHutchingsdrumsUK]

Guys, I'll never look at a 'Buck stop' the same way ever again. I literally had to re-watch Lee's impression at least three times in a row. Bloody brilliant :D

[@rick00770]

I played a getstream the other day, was totally blown away. Got to get one. For real. I’ve played for a long time, lots of different guitars. These guitars are fantastic. Well done Andertons and Reverend.

[@hops2099x]

Man that 390 sounds absolutely sick with the bass rolled out (of course I'm imagining in a full mix where it would sit, but me likey)

[@extansegura]

tried one last year and love it, they are excelent build and sound outstanding if you look a unic bluesy sound

[@222SickBoy]

I Just wanted to reach out & thank you guys for making these videos. The enormous amount of knowledge that you all share with one another & your audience is not only rarely found in one place on youtube, but when it is... it's the most dry and boring droning on earth; I'm not one to sit through that (no matter how much I want to learn). You guys have so much fun together & thoroughly enjoy guitars & all that comes with them in such a way that you don't have to struggle to impart wisdom upon your viewers. Damn this is wordy.... TL:DR THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH! LOVE YOU & YOUR VIDEOS. YOU HAVE REIGNITED THE DORMANT GUITARIST INSIDE OF ME. SENDING LOVE FROM ACROSS THE POND!

[@nazmoking3171]

That Jetstream 390 that Rob plays around the 11:00 point is amazing! Tremendous diversity of sounds and a very musical guitar in general. Looks like a killer as well - 3 P90's really super cool.

[@creepyfreak88]

Also love that sneek intro of Today at the end, great stuff!

[@thomasraven]

Billy Corgan threw a fit at a show I went to during the mellon collie tour and he ran offstage as soon as the contractual minimum time for the show had been reached - about 45 minutes. The rest of the band just stood onstage trying to figure out what to do, so James Iha walked up to a mic and said, "I'm sorry, everybody" and they left the stage. As it turned out, word was that Corgan was angry that they hadn't completely sold out so he took his anger out on the people who DID buy tickets. I have no respect for any artist who has such disrespect for me, so I'll never ever buy anything he's associated with again.

[@tonym7051]

really? wow, that sucks man, i never thought he was like that

[@quasarpuffs]

I honestly don't know what to think of Billy, but I love Smashing Pumpkins so much that if I ever got to meet him, one thought would be repeating over and over in my mind: Please don't be a dick. Please don't be a dick. Please don't be a dick.

[@vikonja121]

do you remember what date was this? because this is the first time I've ever heard of this story

[@vikonja121]

+Fakey Cakez thats kind of stupid.. I mean, you don't have to be a billy corgan fan in order to like the songs

[@acarlovonsexron1994]

As a long time fan, there are many sides to Billy Corgan. Crybaby is indeed one of them. He's also been known to be a pretentious ego and insecurity driven control freak. He's also been a genuine intelligent guy and a musical genius. He's a man of contradictions. I mean his band could call equal influence from the Cure, Sepultura, Shoegaze, the Scorpions, Rush, Electronica, and Joni Mitchell. I'd like to think he's bit mellower these days, he has a wife and a kid, and recently got back on good terms with all the original members- something I thought would never happen, but look at Guns n Roses. He's also a legitimate shredder and a studio wizard worthy of a signature guitar.

[@vincet68]

Oh, and the 2 extra screws in the middle of the neck plate are to keep the plate in place when you take the neck off - a nod from Joe Naylor to guitar techs everywhere.

[@chadkoons]

These are my favorite KZbin vids. Thanks, men.

[@monsoon446]

finally the long awaited review of Reverend BC1, thank you guys. And needless to mention, great great playing as always. CHEERS

[@DarthEcoli]

Captain taking the piss out of the Buck shot was brilliant! Made the whole video completely worth it!

[@lachlan1971]

I went to my local guitar shop, intent on buying the orange left handed Jetstream with the 3 P90s. When I saw the Manta Ray I changed my mind. I'm not a big fan of whamolo arms and prefer humbuckers. It's a fantastically lovely guitar. Definitely would recommend it to anyone. Girlfriend fell out with me for spending a grand on a guitar and a pedal.

[@MXmulisha199]

An album of Chappers & Captain goodness needs to happen!

[@gilligan1036]

This review had me in stitches!! I'd love a Reverend Jetstream. Definitely gonna get saving!!

[@climbingha4d]

been waiting 2 years for you guys to do this review. Captain - glad you like that buckshot, thought that would be up your alley

[@bigteno4597]

Really like them, will check out the prices on the website. Thanks guys another great vid from the team!!

[@drguy2156]

Saw you play last week and your blues playing was awesome mate! Why you aren't up there with Clapton is just beyond me! Cheers mate.

[@Ali-fl5mb]

I love Reverend, they're definitely on my list for my next guitar!

[@savethedandelions]

that billy corgan model is the first signature model to make me drool in a while. oh, and nickelback cover band? ...i don't even...

[@lukejacko888]

Love the one pick up guitar!! With the tone and bass controls have loads of different sounds!!!

[@michaelkingston3434]

You two sure go Mad as Hatters when Pete is not around :) reminded me of the early years of you vlogin and reviews. Keep it up Chaps.

[@Claimjumper55]

I got a chance to play the Unknown Hinson model for about an hour in Las Vegas recently. I was really impressed and could definitely see adding one to my collection.

[@dennisgarryowen8885]

I love Lee's sense of humor. He cracks me up.

[@CalinDee]

28:23 Tears! Rolling down my cheeks :-D Fantastic!

[@Malio75]

I've got the Buckshot and as much as I hate to fall victim to confirmation bias...I think that these are terrific guitars. Very affordable sleepers that sound, look and play great and include thoughtful design touches. (Courtesy of Joe Naylor & Co.) The Corgan sounds especially great on this demo: clean, stringy and balanced, even with high gain. Impressive.

[@JohnSmith-ki2eq]

The bolt on necks are only held on with six bolts, the two screws in the middle are there solely to hold the plate to the body if you unbolt the neck.

[@MrGreenYeti]

20:59 Robs smile after that innuendo haha,

[@LukeBass1000]

High Five!

[@GeekyGuitarMan]

Just the tip

[@gabeprice5648]

Seen him smile. Like a smiling eyes smile. Doode deff ghey

[@DiedrichKnickerbocker1783]

Just played a Fender CS Caballo Tono telecaster in store. Unbelievable blues-rock machine.

[@elijahw1931]

I've got a Reverend Flatroc and had a Sensei with Railhammers for a while, they were both amazing. I've played a Pete Anderson Reverend-made Tele that was amazing as well. Never picked up a disappointing Reverend.

[@portlandshomlessproblem1728]

Elijah W I played a buckshot with a rattle in the bridge if I was buying a reverend I would definitely spring for one with a Wilkinson

[@unicornboo1770]

I love Chappers genuine fan reaction to the Billy Corgan guitar. Slightly star struck which fot me is awesome 👌

[@riffmagos]

Great review, guys. Captain - I'm seriously liking your playing lately.

[@MikeGossett]

I picked up a Jetstream 390 just like the one in the vide about 9 months ago. That bass contour makes the guitar super versatile, and it excels with clean chimey tones. I'm not a high distortion player like these guys typically are. It works well with my rather large pedalboard as well. It's become my #1 go to guitar over my Custom Shop '60 Les Paul RI or CS Tele. Amazing value for the money and a real pro level guitar. My soundguy loves it because it mixes so well, I play to about 5000-6000 people a week so that really matters to me.

[@user-pi2xl4jw3e]

The weird awkward tension they had between them for a while seems to be gone now.

[@Kjskateboarding1]

sexual tension, maybe they was relieved of it...

[@Fillkarre]

a video of them relieving their sexual tensions are coming in the next facebook video.

[@trense13]

its cuz the captain hates technique and loves feel, he wishes pete was his friend instead of chappers

[@leboosh2811]

your profile picture makes me think my screen needs a clean

[@Fektthis]

I like the entire staff. Pete's playing is really nice but he does at times just grab for a lot of notes like Chappers does. They're both guilty of it and so are most other guitarists. It's just something you do early on when playing and then you learn to restrain it.

[@zachballard970]

DO MORE REVEREND PLEASE!!!!! THIS IS GREAT!

[@webseiter]

We all dearly miss Rebecca :-( Her rundown with Satchel was EPIC! :D

[@guitargold100]

Thank you, great jam at thr end

[@rockriff8889]

Got the coffee burst Sensei RA FM at 0.42 seconds a quality instrument love it... The Korina has a bright tone... Well done Lee & Chappers for the demo... Just for the record Rob .The Bass contour control.Gives you the capability to Gjent or sound like a Telecaster and anything in between... Food for thought dude... The Sensei was named after Joe Naylor's wife who is a 5th Dan Jujitsu Sensei, apparently..

[@paniccleo]

YES! more p90s! Lee's tones in this were awesome. Also, last I saw, Rebecca Dirks was doing Tone Report videos for Pro Guitar Shop, but I think she had a kid. :)

[@mrflanimaldrums]

Reverend Guitars from Toledo, Ohio! The Greatest thing to come out of Toledo since Harry DeArmond and Bud Rowe made some of the greatest pickups of all time!

[@Krunnky]

Another great vid guys!

[@hotdotdog]

There are 8 screws on the neck plate but only 6 bolt to the neck. The other 2 hold the plate to the body so if you take the neck off, the plate stays put.

[@GuillermoSmyser]

The idea about the bass contour is great. I think they are going for a strat-ier selection of tones especially when you want to do the in-between thing.

[@RabiBenLavi]

The Corgan pickups can be bought separately. Riff City has them, if you're an American band and help you party it down.

[@martydoesdrums296]

great video as usual guys

[@johnnyjonsson3681]

I think the two middle screws holds the neck plate in place when you remove the neck. So it's "just" a 6 bolt neck.

[@mattw5716]

Actually, its a tilt adjustment. Like two built in adjustable shims.

[@crmac]

Not sure where you heard that but that is not true. They simply hold the neck plate in place if you remove the neck. I own multiple Reverends and have removed the necks on a few as well. There is no kind of tilt mechanism.

[@mattw5716]

I made a bad assumption I guess. I owned a Buckshot and just always figured that's what they were for. Never had a need to remove the neck or make any adjustments. Thanks for setting me straight!

[@ajkourafas]

I love Chapton vids. My favorite ones on the channel for sure.

[@Messier31NGC224]

That was hilarious!! Also some awesome tones!

[@alphajames33]

That Billy Corgan though. I'll take a dozen. What a tone.

[@MisterTee]

Word on the mean streets of Bend, Oregon is that these are quite good

[@MrSlash00r]

@25:22 Top 5 tone I've ever heard on Anderton's YT channel. For some reason, that double hammer on @25:44 just nails it for me as well.

[@jawadchowdhury9813]

one of my.most favourite manufactures, their baynot and double agent is to die for

[@lakibjornson281]

Mr Chapman. That solo in the beginning was a tasty lump of goodness.

[@super_guitar_dude7954]

Best noise ive heard from anderton in a while actually! these really sound great if you ask me

[@rezner101]

The Buckshot in chronic blue looks amazing. I'll take one.

[@xtemplarx]

I busted out at the Nickelback coverband line! Rob's face made it. XD

[@jyebackhouse93]

Love single pickup guitars. I own an LTD Screaming Skull with one pickup, one volume knob, it is hands down the best guitar and I would suggest buying one if your looking for a high quality single pickup guitar.

[@WhitzEnd00]

Regarding the Neck plate screws. The 6 outer bolts attach the neck. The middle 2 keep the neck plate attached to the body.

[@jeremiahwilson1781]

the original Reverends made in Detroit were ssome of the best made and stellar sounding guitars ive ever played.

[@PlusTenVictory]

I believe it's actually a 6 bolt neck; the two smaller ones just go into the body, not through to the neck. They are there so if you remove the the neck those two hold the plate to the body. So it's 6 that go from the plate, through the body to the neck, and two that just go from plate to body.

[@demeaningplebny1363]

Was glad to see you do something with P90's. I love the P90 tone. Sure, they hum some, but that can be managed, and it's worth it for that tone. Now-a-days a lot of people assume they are 2nd rate, semi-obsolete pickups. No way. They are just different and sound great. Please do more with P90's.

[@tricko2286]

Never had a guitar with P90's until a few weeks ago when I picked up a 14' Gibson Melody Maker & Epi 3 P90 Riviera - awesome fat, warm, gritty, punchy, tone. My new favorite pup!

[@MilitantOldLady]

I really like the look of that single P90 that Captain was holding.

[@coltondillard1630]

damn lee, your blues soloing on the single p90 model was top notch! Guess that's why they call you the captain

[@edwindude9893]

Rob should review everything by just saying “they are better than the shit I sell !”

[@coffeehouseartist]

also that's the first time I've heard the Billy Corgan model. I'm not a fan of the design, but WOW does it sound great!

[@aarons.8532]

I love these guitars. I own three of them. I have a Rocco (USA model), a Warhawk II HB (I put Duncans in it), and a Bayonet RA 90.

[@bluespirit85]

It would be so cool to see Rebecca Dirks doing videos on the Andertons channel!

[@stuartbegley2085]

The bus stop joke, lol well played lee

[@blindjohnharrison8026]

Now they HAVE to do Sounds Like Billy Corgan on the Andertons Channel

[@quasarpuffs]

Yeah, I've been bugging them to do one for ages. I don't know if they would use this sig though as it would eat up most of their budget. Also I'm always a little let-down when they just grab a sig instead of trying to find a regular guitar model that will do the job.

[@vikonja121]

well since billy used various strats throughout most of his career, they would probably pick out some sort of squier, a hot-rodded one preferably (if there is one in the upper ranges), since they can't really put lace sensors into the squier.. I'm really curious about the amp choice though, I'm pretty sure they would go with something versatile, like the blackstar HT series or maybe the egnater tweaker? since billy used JCM800s in the early smashing pumpkins years, then in the mid 90-s he used a marshall JMP-1 valve preamp into a mesa strategy 500 poweramp, later on into 2000 and onwards he used all kinds of amps, noticeably Diezel amps..

[@williammayer6829]

Please no, they always fuck up fuzz tones and I can't stand Rabea butchering great songs. Prime example is the Tool stuff, didn't play a single riff correctly and got nowhere close to the right tone

[@williammayer6829]

+vikonja121 use a blackstar on the KT-88 setting, JHS Muffaletta (Billycorgan setting,level cranked,tone at 1 and gain at max)and any half decent guitar. Simple rig unless you wanna get into how everything on Siames dream was ran through a phaser and having butch vig work his thing

[@vikonja121]

I agree, their guitar/amp/effects choice could tonally probably cover only a fraction of the songs.. honestly I've seen enough to know that they'll just jam in a big muff, play some siamese dream riffs like cherub rock and today, then do a clean tone with 1979 and another dirty with bullet with butterfly wings.. lame stuff

[@alecc130]

I think the two smaller bolts on the plate are to keep the back plate on while the other six can be taken off.

[@wonderwomanguy]

The bass roll off knob is so subtle that I wish it was just a mini switch instead.

[@franklinvanknippenberg8217]

If Chappers used a Big Muff to show off the BC it would be perfect.

[@MrTotallies]

I know Joe Naylor(The founder of Reverend)'s daughter who recommended i get one when i got the chance. Well after talking to Ken I finally have my hands on this kick ass niche of guitars. It is absolutely gorgeous and plays like nothing I've heard. Recommend 100% support these local Detroiters!!

[@40spinup]

Think the last one Lee played the bass cut knob should be down with the tone knob and the volume knob put up top. That would be cool.

[@bengalvin9932]

WOW THAT PURPLE BC SIG [they showed for a secound] LOOKED REALLY COOL I THINK THATS MY PICK!

[@robsangg]

the reason for the 8 screws in the neck plate.......6 large screws are for the neck, the 2 smaller screws in the middle are to hold the plate on the guitar body when/if you remove the neck. Don't know why they did it.

[@mistacoz]

@Captain Lee - that pick-guard has a hint of the Monza race circuit in Italy.

[@DriveCarToBar]

The eight bolt neck is actually a six bolt neck. The two middle ones just hold the neck plate in position while you get the six actual neck bolts in. Really helpful for the guy working on the instrument. The neck plate stays with the body instead of getting knocked around on the work bench and lost. A couple other neat things (for us guitar techs anyway) you guys didn't mention are the dual action truss rods that give you greater control over the curve of the neck and the graphite nuts that come as standard. Nice touches that make the guitars easier to work on and more stable when you play them. Another nice touch that ALL bolt neck bodies should share, is the tight neck pocket. Again, its not something you notice while playing. You just realize one day that you never really have to tune up in the middle of a gig. A slight adjustment here or there but otherwise, they just play and play. It's because the neck doesn't shift around in the pocket. Yes the six screws hold it, but they don't have to work as hard because the fit of the wood is so tight. Reverend really makes some nice, high quality instruments.

[@paullabbe9505]

I like the reviews these guys do. I care for there opinion on guitars over anyone else on the internet.

[@adamsedgwick3539]

That Reverend Sensei RA at the end of the row at 0:42 I think might actually be the one I own! Anderton's gave me a shout when I grabbed it saying that they have one on the shop floor with a few blemishes, and a brand new one will take about a month to get in stock so I can have that one and some extra strings as it's not brand new! It's genuinely the best guitar I've ever played, and at the moment I'm currently shopping around for a B-guitar to play as a backup for live shows - I don't think I can find one that plays like my Sensei though haha!
