Big, deep and punchy with excellent clarity is the calling card of the Reverend Mercalli 4. The innovative passive pickups have that vintage warmth, while the five-piece neck and lock down bridge deliver modern punch and sustain!

Custom Pickups

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

Lock Down Bridge

Reverend's bridge features Allen bolts that lock each saddle down to the massive base plate. This locks the bridge into one solid unit which enhances clarity and attack and produces bell-like sustain. This versatile bridge can also be strung string-thru-body or top-load.

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 lively, responsive instruments that are rich in harmonics.

Six-Bolt Neck Plate

Two extra bolts increase mounting pressure of the neck by 50 percent. This makes a stronger neck connection, which improves sustain, tuning stability, and neck alignment. And for convenience, two small screws hold the plate in place when removing the neck.

Pickup Pan Control

This control allows you to blend the two pickups with one knob. Roll in the bridge pickup for more midrange punch, or… read more bring up the neck pickup for more low thump and open highs. Dialing in the perfect tone has never been easier! read less
