Description

The Reverend Kingbolt Standard HH in Purple Punch is a sleek, retro-modern workhorse built for players who want punchy rock tones, rock-solid tuning stability and effortless playability. With a roasted maple neck, solid korina body and Reverend HCM humbuckers, it is designed to deliver everything from high-octane riffs to sweet, articulate cleans, all wrapped up in a striking, stage-ready finish. Under the bold Purple Punch gloss, the Kingbolt Standard is all about performance. The roasted maple neck and fretboard feel fast and smooth, while the medium oval profile sits comfortably in the hand for long sets. A solid korina body keeps things resonant and responsive, and the BS184 trem system with stainless steel saddles gives you expressive vibrato with excellent tuning stability. Add Reverend’s Bass Contour control into the mix and you have a hugely versatile instrument that can cover a surprising amount of ground. Reverend’s HCM humbuckers provide the core of the Kingbolt’s voice, delivering plenty of output and aggression for rock and heavier styles, yet cleaning up beautifully when you roll back the volume. From tight rhythm work to singing leads, they respond dynamically to your picking and your controls, making the guitar feel alive under your fingers. Chrome hardware and clean, pickguard-free lines complete the look, giving the Kingbolt a distinctive, modern aesthetic that still nods to classic bolt-on designs. Whether you are hitting the studio, the stage or the rehearsal room, the Kingbolt Standard HH in Purple Punch offers a compelling mix of tone, feel and flexibility. It is a no-nonsense, high-performance instrument that rewards expressive players and fits comfortably into a wide range of genres. Reverend HCM Humbuckers The Kingbolt Standard is loaded with Reverend HCM humbuckers that deliver serious rock horsepower. They offer a thick, powerful voice with plenty of bite for driven tones, yet retain clarity and definition so your chords never turn to mush. Roll back the volume and they clean up smoothly, giving you sweet, articulate tones for more subtle passages without needing to touch your amp. Roasted Maple Neck and Fretboard A roasted maple neck and fretboard provide a smooth, stable playing platform with a snappy, responsive feel. The roasting process helps to enhance stability and resistance to environmental changes, so the neck feels consistent gig after gig. Combined with the comfortable medium oval profile and 22 frets, it is a neck that invites fast runs, big bends and expressive vibrato. Solid Korina Body The solid korina body gives the Kingbolt a lively, resonant character with a rich midrange presence. Korina is prized for its musical response and excellent balance across the frequency spectrum, helping your notes ring out with clarity and sustain. It is an ideal match for the HCM humbuckers, supporting both punchy overdrive and articulate clean tones. BS184 Trem with Stainless Steel Saddles The BS184 trem bridge is designed for stability and sustain, featuring stainless steel saddles that enhance punch and clarity. It allows you to add subtle shimmers or more expressive pitch effects without fighting the hardware. Paired with Reverend’s reliable hardware and thoughtful construction, it helps keep the guitar feeling solid and in tune under demanding playing conditions. Key Features Reverend HCM Humbucker Set – A matched pair of Reverend HCM humbuckers delivers high-output rock tones with excellent clarity. They handle gain with ease for thick, saturated sounds, yet respond beautifully when you roll back the volume for cleaner, more nuanced playing. Roasted Maple Neck and Fretboard – The roasted maple construction offers enhanced stability and a smooth, fast feel. Combined with the medium oval profile, it provides a comfortable, familiar playing experience that suits everything from rhythm work to lead playing. Solid Korina Construction – A solid korina body and top give the guitar a resonant, harm…

About the manufacturer

Reverend Guitars

Reverend Guitars are one of those brands that quietly stand out once you discover them. Founded by Joe Naylor, they blend classic guitar inspiration with genuinely useful modern improvements. What we really like about Reverend is how thoughtful the designs are — familiar shapes, but refined for real players. Features like the Bass Contour control give you extra tonal flexibility, letting you tighten or roll off low end without changing guitars, which makes them far more versatile than they first appear.

Build quality is another big win. Most Reverend guitars use Korina bodies for a warm, resonant tone while keeping things comfortable to play, and they tend to feel gig-ready straight out of the box. Tonally they cover a lot of ground — from indie and blues to rock and heavier styles — with models like the Double Agent, Sensei, and Charger each offering their own character. If you want something that stands out from the usual choices but still feels instantly playable, Reverend is well worth exploring.

Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

The most useful differences include scale length, construction, pickup type, neck profile, materials and whether the instrument is intended for amplified, acoustic or hybrid use.
