Reverend Jetstream 390, Periwinkle
Regular price $1,800.00The Jetstream 390 from Reverend Guitars is the rare hard-hitting axe that does as much for thick, raw, and bluesy rock riffs as it does for bright, twangy surf music. Shaped from premium korina wood with a bolt-on roasted maple neck, the head-turning Jetstream 390 is bursting with vintage charm. It comes loaded up with three Reverend 9A5 P-90 pickups that cut through any mix with an undeniable presence. You can further shape your tone courtesy of Reverend's bass roll-off knob, which thickens up or thins out your sound in any pickup position. The Jetstream 390's built-in treble bleed ensures you maintain brightness no matter how high or low you set the master volume; the upgraded dual-contact cable jack from Pure Tone Technologies gives you not only better cable grip, but also a more reliable signal for your 9A5s. The Jetsream 390 also boasts a variety of functional exterior appointments, including pin-lock tuning pegs for fantastic tuning stability and lower-profile control knobs to combat strumming impediment. Guitarists are big fans of the adjustable Wilkinson WVS50 IIK tremolo bar — it pairs nicely with the Vari-claw tremolo claw system, allowing you to find that optimal firmness for the bar.
Quality craftsmanship meets supreme playability
The Jetstream 390's korina body is an ideal choice because of its lighter weight, consistency, and renowned tonal qualities. Reverend's beautiful bolt-on roasted maple neck complements every finish, and adds to the charming aesthetic of the guitar. Additionally, Reverend has included a custom-engraved reinforced steel cable jack plate, a Boneite nut for reduced string friction, and their iconic pin-lock thumbwheel tuning pegs to ensure impeccable intonation. The low-profile dome knobs stay out of your way when strumming, making playability both easy and more efficient. You'll find the truss rod easily accessible via the headstock, allowing for stress-free adjustability for avoiding damage with age and changing climates. Every Jetstream 390 is numbered and initialed by a Reverend technician, adding a final personal touch to your beautifully crafted guitar.
Tone shape your P-90s like never before
Reverend's proprietary 9A5 P-90 pickups deliver a fat, raw, and bluesy sound. This makes the Jetstream 390 not only well suited for rock, but a wide variety of genres in between. Designed to maintain a stable balance of tone and volume between pickup selections, the 9A5s offer reliable power in every position you choose. When you decide you need to adjust the low-end punch of your tone, use the roll-off bass knob to easily contour any tone to your liking. On the brighter side, a built-in treble bleed allows you to reduce volume without losing any of your treble tone's edge. Reverend's extensive efforts to maximize tone preservation speaks volumes for the reliability of the Jetstream 390. And with three P-90s to work with, these exciting features are your ticket for easy genre hopping.
Internal electronics fit for a boutique guitar
You'll find just as much quality in the internal electronics as you'll find from an outside glance of the Jetstream 390. Reverend's rule of thumb is ±10% when it it comes to their polyester caps and alpha control pots. This level of engineering is normally found on boutique guitars, but it's a standard for every Reverend guitar, including the Jetstream 390. Another Reverend staple is an upgraded jack by Pure Tone Technologies, built dependably with two contacts that provide a better overall grip and a reliable signal.
