Reverend Guitars Introduces Triad, Raymond, Decision P Basses
Reverend Guitars unveiled three new bass models at the NAMM Show this year with the Triad, the Raymond, and an updated version of their Decision. Each of the bolt-on basses is built with a five-piece roasted maple neck, korina body, and a boneite nut.
The company describes the Triad as being all about diversity with three of their brand new Jazz Bomb pickups, which are hum-free with increased output. “The steel rails create a rich, focused tone that cuts through the mix. Combine them with the 5-way switch, and experiment with all kinds of sounds for any tone alchemist,” Reverend writes. It comes in metallic alpine, burnt brick, and purple burst finishes.
They call the Raymond, on the other hand, a “slap machine.” A Thick Brick bridge pickup offers a wide tone with a Jazz Bomb in the neck offering more focus. Reverend says that creates an ideal percussive bass with dimension. Finishes include Venetian Gold, Chronic Blue, and Midnight Black.
Finally, the Reverend P adds their P-Blade pickup in the neck and a Jazz Bomb in the neck. A pickup pan control lets you blend between them for an array of tones. It comes in Burnt Brick, Chronic Blue, and Oceanside Green.
The Reverend Triad, Raymond, and Decision P basses all carry street prices of $999.
