From headstock to bridge, the Thundergun bass from Reverend brims with stunning features and premium electronics for that thick old-school tone with modern bells and whistles. Reverend’s proprietary 100% korina body delivers lively low end and harmonic range with big sustain that’s elevated further by the body’s raised mid-section and contoured wings that balance the body for perfect playability. Two custom Reverend humbucker pickups — a Thick Brick in the bridge and a Split Brick in the neck — produce a warm and rounded tone, adjustable to taste via the onboard pickup pan knob. Lastly, Hipshot Ultralight tuners made from aircraft-grade aluminum provide the Thundergun bass the kind of balance in bodyweight and sound that'll have you taking your low-end frequencies sky high!

Rich, unique tonewoods

Like every Reverend instrument, the Thundergun features a lively korina body with a thin, UV-cured finish. In fact, Reverend has revealed to us that it is the korina wood that gives Reverend basses their responsive sounds and rich harmonics. Together with its 5-piece korina/walnut neck, the Thundergun produces strong, lasting sustain yet weighs less than a comparable mahogany instrument.

Bespoke Reverend electronics

Reverend’s in-house electronics are individually designed optimized for each Reverend instrument, and the Thundergun is no exception. Onboard are two humbuckers — a Thick Brick in the bridge for thick, strong mids that cut through even the densest mixes, and a Split Brick in the neck that provides wide, round notes with pronounced highs and shaking lows. Reverend’s unique dual-point output jack (created by Pure Tone Technology) ensures an airtight cable connection that’s reliable and less prone to failure than traditional bass jacks.

Boutique hardware

The Thundergun's hardware is ultra-light and primed for versatility with a high-mass 2-way bridge that yields of enhanced clarity, sustain, and attack. This unique bridge also allows you to wind your bass strings as a string-through setup or a top-loading setup so can dial in your bass’s tone and tension just how you like it (and still change your mind later)! Onboard tone controls include three low-profile dome knobs (volume, tone, and pickup pan) that stay clear of your fingers or pick, and the pan knob is conveniently a different color for fast adjustments on stage with no flubs.
