Ultra-versatile electronics
Plug the Reverend Double Agent W into your favorite amp or modeler, and you’ll be ready to rip. This hot-rodded axe’s HA5 bridge pickup is a classic-style, Alnico V–loaded humbucker with extra windings of 43-gauge wire for added drive and punch. The HA5 yields a warm yet open tone with enough clarity for precise staccato riffs and dazzling technical leads. The Double Agent W’s 9A5 neck pickup is a P-90-style single-coil with an extra dose of modern clarity. The 9A5 features 42-gauge wire and Alnico V magnets for a clear, open tone that’s sure to please. You’ll dig this solidbody electric guitar’s Bass Contour control — a passive bass roll-off that not only tightens your low end, but also revoices your pickups. Everything from scorching high gain to bluesy leads and country-fied twang is easily within the reach of the Double Agent W. You also get a treble bleed circuit that preserves your high end when you roll back your volume control. Reverend’s proprietary custom jack plate and Pure Tone jack round out the Double Agent W’s top-of-the-line features.
Top-of-the-line hardware
When you dive into the Double Agent W, you’ll find high performance in every component. This guitar’s Reverend Pin-Lock tuning machines lock your strings in place for out-of-this-world tuning stability and lightning-fast string changes. A patent-pending Triple-Tree string tree features an extended bar that holds down three strings at a time with a single tree. You’ll appreciate how this string tree safeguards against G-string buzz in the guitar’s nut slot. You also get a Wilkinson WVS50 IIK tremolo system, which permits manic whammy action with zero tuning issues. Beyond that, the tremolo system’s Vari-Claw enables you to switch between three or two springs with little or no cumbersome adjustment required.
