Reverend Guitars teams a pair of P-90s with a humbucker in new "first of its kind" Six Gun HPP

NAMM 2021 isn't taking place in the physical realm this year, but you'll find all the hottest January gear launches in our guide to the biggest guitar, amp and pedal releases of 2021 so far.

Reverend Guitars has introduced its new Six Gun HPP electric guitar – a "first of its kind" model that pairs a bridge humbucker with a pair of P-90s in an attempt to unlock a whole host of new tonal possibilities.

While Reverend has experimented with pairing the two types of pickups before, it's the first time it's brought a second P-90 to the party.

The custom-designed humbucker is said to have tons of gowl, while the propriety P-90s are designed to deliver clear, open tones. The pickups are wired to a five-way switch that allows guitarists to mix and match the three to achieve their desired sound.

A bass-contour control knob – capped by custom dome knobs which feature a low profile to avoid accidental collision while picking and/or strumming – has also been added to the circuitry in a bid to encourage guitarists to get creative with their tone.

As is customary for all Reverend guitars, the Six Gun HPP features a korina body, roasted maple neck and either a pau ferro or roasted maple fretboard, depending on what finish you opt for.

While the Chronic Blue and Coffee Burst models come equipped with a pau ferro fingerboard, the Avocado Burst and Midnight Black options feature a roasted maple one. Both boards have a 12" radius and each guitar has a 25.5" scale length.

Also returning to the fold is a familiar Bonetite nut, Pin-Lock tuners, a dual action truss rod, a Wilkinson WVS50 IIK tremolo and – as a nice personal touch – a hand-initialed serial number on the back of the headstock, added by Reverend guitar inspectors.

The new guitars are available now for £879 (approx. $1,200). Visit Reverend Guitars for more info.

The Six Gun HPP has been released alongside the new Reverend Gil Parris signature, which represented the first time a Strat-style body shape had been used for one of Reverend's guitars.
