Innovative Railhammer pickup design
The Charger Cleancut features a pair of Railhammer Cleancut pickups, designed by Reverend founder Joe Naylor to solve one of the biggest challenges of traditional humbuckers. Rails beneath the wound strings keep bass notes tight, focused, and articulate, while individual pole pieces beneath the plain strings deliver full, expressive highs with excellent sustain. This innovative combination produces exceptional note separation, balanced output, and impressive clarity across the entire fretboard, making the guitar equally suited to clean passages, driven rhythm playing, and soaring lead tones.
Resonant construction with enhanced sustain
A lightweight korina body provides balanced frequencies, lively resonance, and rich harmonic content while remaining comfortable during extended playing sessions. Reverend's slimmer Charger body improves ergonomics without compromising tone, and the thin UV-cured finish allows the wood to vibrate more freely for greater responsiveness. The string-through-body bridge features stainless steel saddles and a solid aluminium string block, creating a stable anchor point that maximises sustain, tuning stability, note definition, and percussive attack for an engaging playing experience.
Comfortable neck and dependable hardware
The roasted maple neck undergoes a specialised heat treatment that improves long-term stability while giving it an attractive vintage appearance. Its comfortable Medium Oval profile and 12-inch radius fingerboard provide a fast, natural playing feel across all 22 frets. Reverend Pin-Lock tuners, the Boneite nut, Triple-Tree string tree, and six-bolt neck plate work together to enhance tuning stability, strengthen the neck joint, and increase sustain, ensuring dependable performance through rehearsals, recording sessions, and live performances.
Designed for tonal flexibility
Beyond its premium construction, the Charger Cleancut includes practical features that make it remarkably adaptable. Reverend's Bass Contour control lets you reduce low frequencies to create tighter, brighter pickup voices while preserving the guitar's natural character. Premium Alpha control pots, polyester capacitors, a Pure Tone output jack, reinforced steel jack plate, and a treble bleed circuit maintain consistent operation and excellent clarity throughout the control range. Every guitar is hand-initialled and serial numbered by the technician responsible for its final inspection and setup, reflecting Reverend's commitment to quality craftsmanship.
