I've been enamored with the look of the Reverend guitars now for a while, and after going back and forth on which model I wanted I decided to pull the trigger on the Flatroc. I took a chance and bought a used one and can't tell you how glad I am that I did. First of all, it's a cool, retro looking instrument. It's made of solid Korina with a beautiful translucent orange finish, and it's much lighter than the current electrics that i own. The guitar has a lot of sustain and a great warm tone. I went with the Flatroc because i already own a Telecaster and a Les Paul and I was looking for something with that mini humbucker bite and rockabilly twang. This guiitar has that sound, but is much more versatile than that. With the tone and the bass roll off knob you can dial any sound from a country twang to a hard rocking Warren Haynes Explorer sound. Or how about some classic British invasion style rock? You can easily achieve that "Won't get fooled again" tone by dialing in some overdrive. Secondly, the guitar feels great! I can't say enough about how good the neck on this thing feels in my hand. It has a beautiful satin polyurethane finish that slides across your palm like butter across a hot pan. The top and back are angled in just the right spots to make playing more comfortable. And did i mention this thing is light? It makes my Les Paul feel like i'm carrying a bowling ball. Third and most important, you're getting a lot of guitar for the price! Sure they're made in Korea but they are made with care and then are tested and set up in good old USA before going out to the customer. This guitar came set up to play for almost any style but a few turns of the thumb screws on the tune-o-matic bridge and I now have the action as low as I could possibly want it with no buzz. So if you're interested in a hard rocking, cool looking, bad ass guitar at a reasonable price, that doesn't look like anything else out there, look no further. And with all the different models with different pickup configurations that Reverend has to offer, you can find the perfect guitar for that sound you're looking for.Read full review

I'd been wanting one of these for 12 years after seeing a guy playing one at the Coeur D'Alene Blues Festival. He showed me his and told me how it's different. Then, from the moment I picked it up, I noticed a profound difference between the Reverend and some of the more popular guitars I own, without mentioning names. It made me wonder why you don't see all the big name guitarists with one of these. They're missing out! Very unique tones available from the pickup combinations, super-sensitive picups and a thinner neck that my smaller hands just glide across. I had to go to Florida for a week avfter it arrived. I couldn't wait to get back here and play it. SO glad I bought it!

Love my new Reverend Flatroc! Such a great feel and tone and the bass contour really adds a very usable tonal feature. The Revtron pickups sound amazing clean and rock with overdrive. I play this guitar through my Dr. Z Maz 18 Jr NR 112 combo and my Fender Hot Rod Deluxe III and it's sweet through either amp. The fit and finish is spectacular and the playability rivals guitars costing 3 times the price. My only gripe is that a hard case or gigbag is not included. I'm hugely impressed with my first Reverend that I went out a few weeks later and bought a Charger 290! Saving up now for my next Reverend!
