Excellent !
Published on 11/24/15 at 11:43I use the Reverend Club King 290 with Orange AD30 and Ampeg V4BH amps, mainly playing a mix of punk & hardcore. This guitar is just great, my (Mexican) Fender Telecaster and Gibson SG have a hard time competing with it.
I love the way it looks, in between a Tele and LP with even a little Rickenbaker to it - the only cons on this point is the cheap-looking Reverend logo on the headstock.
As far as using it, well it's rather basic: volume and tone knobs, 3-way switch pickup selector, and Reverend's trademark "bass contour" knob.
Soundwise, the (Reverend-made) P90s deliver excellent clean sounds, hot and deep, and also a big overdriven sound - very good for crunch too.

The "Bass Contour" knob is great, it adds a lot of low without drowning out the other frequencies, also the fact that it's a semi-hollow slightly favors the mids. Regarding playing comfort, it's almost as comfortable as a Fender.
The finish is just perfect, nothing to say against it.
All in all, it's a beautiful, very versatile and affordable guitar.See less00
