Product Description

Here's what Reverend says about the Club King 290:

Are you looking for acoustic overtones of a full-size semi-hollow, but with extra clarity and spank, all in a bolt-on sized package? Routed from the top, one slab of Korina creates the back and sides of each Club King 290, and a solid Spruce top caps it. P-90s add just the right amount of raw edge to the rich and woody tones. With strong resonance, excellent sustain, and pronounced attack, the tone is big, unique, and responsive.

Custom Pickups

We design our own proprietary custom pickups, to achieve the best tonal match with our instruments. Reverend pickups are also specifically designed for each position, for balanced volume and tone when switching.

Roasted Maple Neck

Roasted Maple is heat treated at over 300° F to remove sugars, moisture, and impurities. This maple is lighter, more stable, and has a beautiful caramel color. The result is an exceptional maple neck that will require less seasonal adjustment, and boasts a rich vintage look!

Korina Body

Korina (aka White Limba) is a medium-light weight wood, highly prized for consistency and tonal qualities. Often found in boutique and vintage instruments, all Reverends feature Korina bodies. A highly resonant wood, Korina is a key factor to producing our lively, responsive instruments that are rich in harmonics.

Bass Contour

This passive bass roll-off is great for tightening up the low end, or re-voicing the pickups. It can make a humbucker sound like a single-coil, or give a P-90 that classic twang. Variable pickup voicing at your fingertips!

Pin-Lock Tuners

A thumbwheel under the tuner pushes a steel pin up through the post, locking the string in place for exceptional tuning stability and super-fast string changes.

Bigsby With Soft Touch Spring & Roller Bridge

Our Bigsby tremolo system feels great and stays in tune all night long! We install a custom Soft Touch spring into all our Bigsbys for easy, smooth action. Our roller bridge works with our Pin-Lock tuners and Boneite nut to create a system that strings glide through every time.

Dual-Action Truss Rod

Our dual action rod adjusts in both directions, allowing back bow or forward bow. This assures correct adjustment range is possible regardless of string tension, extreme climate conditions, or the effects of long term aging. It’s also located at the headstock for easy access.

Treble Bleed Circuit

All Reverend guitars have a treble bleed circuit, preserving the treble when you roll back the volume control. When you roll back a standard volume control, the tone loses treble and becomes dull sounding. Now you can turn down and still sound great!

Trusted Customer11th Nov 2020

Incredible playability on all frets, even the highest ones, which I've never experienced in a guitar before. I can now play cheezy neo-soul jazz chords with hammer-ons with much higher precision than my Telecaster. This guitar is very versatile, and I especially enjoy the locking tuners. If I am to find something negative; it is heavier than I thought and there is string buzz on the A string. All in all, this is the most comfortable and best guitar I've owned.

Mr Hans-Peter Gottschaldt17th Aug 2020

This is an all around great guitar within the price segment. Neck plays fabulously, body resonates very well, P90 pickups are fat and chunky as they should be, stays in tune although sporting a Bigsby. You can really dial in a vast variety of sounds using the tone and bass contour controles. Works fine clean to light crunch and sounds insanely killer with heavy distortion. In clean sound it may be a bit bass-weighty.
