Sound Pure's Take
The Charger 290 is noted by Reverend as their "real workhorse of a guitar," and this is one beautiful Stallion.
Humbucker power meets pristine crystal cleans and synergizes into something more than the sum of its parts. The standard 25 1/2" is reminiscent of all the bolt-on singlecut guitars you grew up loving, and feels right at home in your hands. An articulate that may be lost in guitars of a lesser ilk is unbelievably present here with great note definition at any gain level. The guitar takes everything from fingerpicking to aggressive strums with ease. The bass contour knob allows you to easily dial in the perfect amount of bass response - making sure your cleans are tailor-made to taste and your distorted tone won't lose its ferocity!
A well-rounded and completely versatile guitar, the Charger 290 is the perfect guitar for all types of music and all levels of musicians. The discerning musician will not have anything negative to say about this beauty.
