Reverend Sensei JR H in Metallic Bordeaux
The Reverend Sensei is a staple of the Reverend set neck line, beloved for its sleek twin-cut design and no-nonsense attitude. This latest JR model has been upgraded with a newly streamlined body for increased comfort, lower weight and tighter low-end punch. The fretboard has also been upgraded to more premium Ebony for increased tonal precision and unmatched feel, while a new headstock logo wears the “Sensei” moniker with pride.
Reverend have thoroughly overhauled their in-house humbucker, one of which sits in pride of place in the bridge position on the Sensei JR H. The new Steelhead humbucker features oversize steel poles, and double magnet construction. The oversize poles boost upper frequency response and headroom, for enhanced harmonics and responsive pick attack. The wide magnetic field eliminates volume drop off when bending. The G and high E poles are slightly taller, for consistent volume string to string. An Alnico 5 magnet delivers smooth tone with shimmering highs. A second Ceramic magnet on the opposite side from the steel poles, boosts the bass response, making for a perfectly balanced tonal spectrum.
For ultimate control, the Sensei JR H is fitted with Reverend’s exclusive Bass Contour control. This allows you to passively roll off the bass frequencies, tightening the pickups’ response and making the humbucker sound much more like a single-coil. Because the control is potentiometer rather than switch activated, you effectively have an infinite level of control, allowing you to dial in your perfect tone.
As with all Reverend guitars, the Sensei JR H is built with premium components throughout, including those you can’t see. It uses more consistent ±10% tolerance pots and capacitors (rather than the ±20% parts found on most guitars), and a Pure Tone output jack with dual contacts for a firmer connection, better signal transfer, and improved reliability. A treble bleed circuit maintains clarity when rolling back the volume, while the boneite nut minimises friction, helping the strings glide smoothly through the nut slots for enhanced tuning stability.
Compact, lightweight, and comfortable, the Reverend Sensei JR delivers style and tone in a no-nonsense package.
