I've been prowling for a guitar lately. Reverend has been suggested as a solution by one of the guitar tone geeks I trust.
Thoughts?????

The newer ones I've heard have all sounded good, but a lot of that is in the hands of the player, of course.

As far as the newer ones go, I've played some really good ones and really bad ones. There have been a few with horrible fit and finish. On the newer ones, I wouldn't buy online unless I knew the seller. The bass knob is amazing though.

Now I have GAS. Looks like a marriage between the Tele and the Jazzmaster/Jaguar, some of my favorite designs. How's that Double Agent sound? |

Thanks for the advice! I figure I'm going to have to work on that other issue next, WAF - Wife Acceptance Factor. That's easier when I'm sure I'm headed down the right road. Thanks, again!

I am now gassing for a Buckshot. I was at Truetone music last week and saw a bunch of the imports and they were all excellent. I think they are extremely good guitars for the money.
