Reverend Guitars Kingbolt HH Citrus Cream: Modern Semi-Hollow Power

The Reverend Guitars Kingbolt HH Citrus Cream redefines the semi-hollow electric guitar landscape with a spruce-topped mahogany body that brings depth, resonance, and eye-catching style. For musicians who seek expressive playability and a broad tonal spectrum, this model’s lightweight build and premium features set it apart for demanding live or studio use. Blending vintage charm with contemporary reliability, the YRS-23 appeals to those wanting a unique visual statement and adaptable performance.

Standout Features: Custom Electronics and Innovative Neck

Custom Steelhead humbuckers, exclusive to this model, combine the lush response of Alnico V with the edge of ceramic magnets, producing clarity and power. The roasted maple neck, heat-treated for extra stability and a rich caramel color, resists environmental changes and keeps performance consistent for the touring musician.

Signature Specs for Total Tonal Control

Sound-shaping is at your fingertips with a bass contour control for single-coil-like clarity and a 12 inch radius fingerboard for technical versatility and comfort. The thoughtfully chosen hardware ensures the instrument responds to both clean passages and overdriven leads.

• Body:Semi-hollow mahogany with solid spruce top — resonance and warmth with an airy touch.
• Pickups:Reverend Steelhead Humbuckers (Alnico V & ceramic blend) — delivers clarity and punch for any style.
