Reverend Kingbolt H90 Purple Punch

The Reverend Kingbolt H90 is here presented in Purple Punch with transparent Brown back and Roasted Maple fretboard. The new Reverend Kingbolt line consolidates the original Jetstream and Kingbolt models into one range. With a subtly sleaker body, there is something inherantly right about how this guitar looks! It’s lighter too, and this H90 model comes with two brand new Steelhead pickups - a P90 in the neck and humbucker in the bridge - offering incredible tone and zero hum.

Reverend Kingbolt H90 in Purple Punch

The latest Reverend Kingbolt is the new Reverend standard bearer if you’re after a bolt-on double-cut guitar with killer looks, superb playability and tour-worthy reliability. With guitars of this ilk originally split between the Jetstream and Kingbold monikers, the range has been streamlined, with every guitar now bearing the newly stylised “Kingbolt” name on its headstock. Bold top colours such as this “Purple Punch” are complemented by transparent brown backs for added refinement. The Wilkinson WVS50IIK tremolo keeps tuning rock-solid, while allowing all manner of whammy bar tricks. The next chapter in Reverend style and performance is here!

Reverend have thoroughly overhauled their in-house humbucker and P90 pickups, both of which are fitted to the Kingbolt H90. The new Steelhead Humbucker and P90 feature oversize steel poles which boost upper frequency response and headroom, for enhanced harmonics and responsive pick attack. The wide magnetic field eliminates volume drop off when bending, while the G and high E poles are slightly taller, for consistent volume string to string.

The humbucker has been further upgraded with double magnet construction. 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.

On the P90, two matched coils cancel the annoying hum common with traditional designs. The coils are turned sideways, allowing both magnets to be focused on a single row of steel poles, yielding the single-coil snap and punch you expect from a P90.

These hugely versatile pickups respectively offer the rich and thick tone of a classic humbucker, and raw and gritty tone of a classic P90, but both with the punch and responsive pick attack of a modern design!

For ultimate control, the Kingbolt H90 is fitted with Reverend’s exclusive Bass Contour control. This control allows you to passively roll off the bass frequencies, tightening the pickups’ response and making a humbucker or P90 sound much more like a traditional 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 Kingbolt H90 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.

The Reverend Kingbolt H90 puts speed, comfort, and upper-fret freedom at your fingertips.
