Reverend Guitars Sensei HH Metallic Bordeaux – Power Meets Precision

The Sensei HH Metallic Bordeaux stands at the forefront of non-traditional electric guitar design, merging Reverend's bold body shape with advanced features for expressive players. Crafted for robust, articulate tones and a fast, comfortable feel, this model’s signature Metallic Bordeaux finish, set-neck construction, and expertly selected components position it as a standout in its class. The Sensei HH Metallic Bordeaux by Reverend Guitars is engineered for guitarists who demand style, versatility, and cutting-edge tone in one package.

Uncommon Features – Modern Innovations

What sets this model apart is its proprietary Steelhead humbuckers, using both Alnico V and ceramic magnets for a unique tonal blend. A korina body, a wood rarely used outside high-end builds, delivers a responsive, harmonically rich foundation. Players notice the thin, UV-cured finish maximizing resonance and giving the guitar an instantly broken-in feel.

Sustain, Stability & Tuning – For the Demanding Player

Those who need reliability and clarity will value the structural and hardware choices in this instrument.

• Body:Korina solidbody — highly resonant, medium-lightweight for comfort and tonal depth
• The three-piece korina neck with set-neck joint increases sustain and maintains stability through seasonal changes.
• Tuners:Reverend Pin-Lock — ensures fast string changes and tuning stability

Playability & Feel – Optimized for Performance

Fast action and expressive playing come naturally on the Sensei HH thanks to these thoughtful design elements.

• Fingerboard:Ebony, 12" (305 mm) radius — slick surface, great note articulation, and long fingerboard life
• Frets:22 medium jumbo, 2.8 mm x 1.27 mm — smooth bends and easy access up the neck
• Players will appreciate the Medium Oval neck profile for balancing comfort and speed, regardless of hand size.

Tonal Versatility – Sonic Flexibility

The electronics and proprietary hardware expand the tonal palette, enabling both classic and modern sounds.

• Pickups:Steelhead Humbucker Bridge & Neck (ceramic + Alnico V magnets) — delivers both old-school warmth and modern punch
• The passive bass contour tightens low end and can mimic single-coil response for extra versatility.
