How did you hear about Reverend?

Saw a friend playing a Jetstream at a show once and asked about it. Bought my first one on a whim to take on tour the next day. I bought a second one a few months later. They’ve been my absolute top choice ever since.

What Reverend guitar(s)/basses are you using?

I own two Jetstream HB’s.

What do you like about your Reverend guitar?

It’s sturdy and well made, easy to play, the pickups are loud, warm, and sound amazing. It’s affordable enough that I can take it on tour and kick the shit out of it, worry free.

Music Radar, "10 questions for Jenn Wasner" by Michael Astley-Brown (August, 17 2016)

1. What was your first guitar and when did you get it?

"My mom taught me my first few chords on guitar, so I guess technically my first guitar was the old Fender acoustic that she kept in her closet. I didn't get a proper guitar of my own until much, much later - I wasn't primarily a guitarist, so I mostly just borrowed them from other people. The first guitar I actually purchased was my first of many Reverend guitars - a sunburst Jetstream HB."

Music Radar, "Wye Oak's Jenn Wasner: 'With a guitar you can make it into anything you want. It’s endlessly variable'" by Matt Parker (April 9, 2018)

“Reverend have been such an incredibly generous and amazing company to work with. I love their guitars, so I have a bunch of them. I have a few different guitars, because when we play live my propensity for alternate tunings makes it very difficult to play a full set seamlessly, so I tend to bring a lot of guitars with me. It’s not just for senseless excess! Before I got the Reverend signature, I was playing either a Charger or a Jetstream, two of their other models.
