Why it matters
Reverend's imports use construction details that usually appear further up the price scale, and the Buckshot reduces the format to one pickup. Guitar Center lists it at $999, near the middle of the import band. Few makers offer a one-pickup bolt-on at this level, which is why the model has a following.
Note
The beloved minimalist single-humbucker model.
