Interesting!
Like a mercalli with a j rail.
Might be brighter than a mercalli then. Could be cool!
Love that colour.
Looks like a party red justice behind it- with either a rosewood board or dark roast maple. That could be cool too.

The bridge pickup is further away from the bridge than the Mercalli
Oh it is too!
So we might say 'Musicman Sweet Spot'
Nice.
A range of colours on this one?

Seems like that might make a nice 5 string
Thats exactly what I said to Joe Naylor in person on Friday. He said "noted"

Hey guys, I just scored a Thundergun in wine earlier today on Reverb. No case, though. Any idea if it would fit in a SKB P/J case? I have a spare. Otherwise, Reverend, TAKE MY MONEY!
Guys, just listed my Mercalli 5 for sale. PM if interested. Maybe would trade for the right Mercalli 4 plus cash.
For Sale - Reverend Mercalli 5 - Passive, Flamed Violin Brown, Killer B String

My favourite bass I've owned.
I've been wanting a four string for around six months...but am holding off until we see these new models.
Just to keep the club ticking over:
I plugged a stingray 5 into my amp a few weeks ago and couldn't believe how far my tastes have shifted in the year Ive been playing my Mercalli.
The stingrays immense, piercing high mids and treble, and comparable lack of depth when set flat was shocking to me.
I guess I have gotten accustomed to the mercalli's Beautifully (fenderish) classic take on a p tone.
It stays in tune no matter what and each piece of hardware has functioned superbly.
The rear H is completely usable, and when I'm jamming on a song that requires some low-B work- I solo the rear H to deliver an amazingly tight sound.
While sometimes I've wondered if the H could use a touch more sizzle, I remember just how good it sounds now.
For those in the know, and can comment- how does the j-rail on the justice and decision compare to the rear H of the mercalli?
I will need a 4 string in 2019 and another reverend is in my sights!

Yeah the rosewood on the 4 string version was not my cup of tea at all either.
I think the overall shape of most of the reverend basses really suits a flame maple top.
