It would be great in all yellow or brown too.

Those "Brick" pickups are really pretty bright and aggressive eh?

I really like that bass.
The 30" scale is probably a deal killer for me.
I could maybe live with 32, but, maybe not.

The Reverend spec page doesn't list weight.
I'd be surprised if it weren't right around 6.5lbs.....

I don't have a scale. My guess is 5-6 pounds.

They can do hot warm cold. If you're used to humbuckers then maybe not a big shift for you but I'm coming from single coils. These have the presence of an active p/j. I dig it.
I was turned off by the short scale too but after accepting it and a few practice sessions it's not an issue. Worth the price of lightweight.
I left the flats on btw.

I've had a Reverend Decision in the house for a while, so, I get the Brick pickups, they're cool. Much brighter than any humbuckers I've had.
Like you, I come from a single coil preference place.

The BassGearMagazine review will be in the next issue, I think.
