    WOW! I like the red one and the second from last one "Rock Orange Flame" according the rev site. They look so cool I'm going to have to see if I can find one locally to try out.

    Cool looking guitar! Like the blue sunburst. I've never actually seen one of these "in the flesh" so to speak, but Reverend guitars have always had good positive reviews. I'd be interested in trying one of these out, but no dealers in my area seem to stock Reverend guitars.

    Yeah seems the only listed Aussie dealer is in a different state to me so might be a while before I get to try one. Very cool guitars though by the sounds of it.

    A buddy of mine has got the black version of the 390. Apparently they only made 10 of them and he has the only one in the UK. I had a little play the other day and man is it a cool guitar. The neck is just something else. I'm used to slim 60's Gibson necks which i thought would be my thing as i played a couple with the fatter 50's necks and they did'nt do anything for me. This Reverend seems to have a happy medium; somewhere between the two. A bit PRS if you like. The P-90's are sweet and he quite rightly loves it!
