Sound Pure's Take
From metal to experimental, and all the ground inbetween, the Reverend Reeves Gabrels signature model will cover almost all genre's of music fantastically.
A slender korina body with a pronounced figure typical of the Reverend line, the Reeves Gabrels model is a great modern take on a classic style. The Railhammer Chisel and Anvil pickups on this axe work wonders with any amount of gain thrown their way, articulating well and with a clear, percussive bite. Awesome at picking up the most subtle of picking nuances and touch dynamics, you're going to be plucking away for days just digging into those strings to see what sounds you can get. The tone knob here doubles for a push-pull phase switch which really adds to the sonic spectrum - feel free to push those boundaries and explore new territories and sounds.
From The Cure's discography to his solo work, Reeves has forged an unmistakeable identity to his sound and his signature model captures it perfectly.
From Reverend Guitars
REEVES GABRELS
Reverend Guitars and Railhammer Pickups have joined forces with guitarist extraordinaire Reeves Gabrels from The Cure. Loaded with the revolutionary Railhammer Chisel bridge and neck pickups, this versatile solidbody can cover everything from high-gain shred to avant garde rock to heavy blues. Unique features include: toggle-style switch that can be rotated to different angles, up-route underneath the tremolo for extra travel, and push-pull phase switch (in the tone control) to push the sonic boundaries. A traditional-meets-modern powerhouse!
