Reverend Club King RT in transparent orange finish


I've always loved Reverend's guitars, but I can't stop looking at this Reverend Club King RT (RT is for Revtron, Reverend's version of Gretsch's Filter'trons - the Club King model exists also with P90s) and enjoy the simplicity and purity of its line, the smart mix of contemporary and vintage, including the almost ironical telecaster control plate.

There are not so many guitar designs that manage so well to pay homage to their illustrious predecessors while being still really up-to-date, and propose an improvement within minimalism (contrarily to many guitars in the 1980s that were in a similar trend but mostly failed, IMHO). They even created their own F-hole (tell me if I'm wrong there!)
