I've seen nothing but excellent QC on the Reverends I've handled. My Watt is outstanding. Others I've checked in stores were wonderful. Doesn't mean a couple of clams got through, I just haven't seen any myself.

I bought a 2017 Justice used in 2019. Other than tweaking the setup to my preference, it hasn't needed anything. Been my main player too.
I really need to try a Watt bass. I've emailed with some of the Reverend folks and they are very proud of how that instrument came together.
My lefty Decision P is amazing. Top shelf build with zero complaints.
Now if Reverend would just do another run of lefty Wattplowers!

Thanks, I had been looking at the Fender Mustang (American) but there's a lot of talk of sloppy QC with them at the moment which for me is a big no no at that price so glad to see Reverend is a worthy choice.
Reverend pulled yellow and maple Wattplowers from site. Maybe some new options coming.
Think i gotta spring for a pearloid pickguard too. small difference but big impact.
The black/maple Decision P is also gone. I guess we'll find out in 10 days
Oooh I can hardly contain my excitement. I don't want to ruin the surprise but I gotta say this. The good folks at Reverend have been super nice to us lowenders this NAMM. Wait for Reverend's official drop. Counting my pennies!!!
A few of the new finishes trickling out on Reverb/Chicago Music Exchange. I'll withhold judgement til I see them in person but don't look to be to my taste. I just can't hang with that black block inlay on maple look. The new Sandstone finish could look real nice though.
I was hoping for a new colored lefty Decision P. I got a black lefty one last year. Lovely bass (except for the string tree, I've changed mine to an sadowsky/hipshot style). Love the new Sandstone finish! If it would be available lefty I'd get one and put some flats on it!

Right. It's nice to see the return of pickguards to the Merc 5
For those who haven't seen the new Reverend basses yet….
Decision P is now the Decision again, but with the same pup configuration as the Decision P. The logo has also been enlarged…and yep this high tide blue is new, the difference (apart from the logo size) is the silver backsprayed pg has been replaced with parchment

Mercalli has reverted to the Mercalli again instead of the Mercalli 4 and features the enlarged logo…
