Following in the steps of the Jetstream HC before it, the Reverend Jetstream 290 marries off-axis aesthetics, Bigsby-fueled expression, and P-90-inspired power into a robust stage-grade 6-string that’s ready to rock. A foundation of korina, roasted maple, and rosewood tonewoods is brought to life by the supercharged sonics of Reverend’s own PA5 pickups, resulting in an aural aperture that’s further enhanced by Reverend’s cutting-edge Bass Contour knob for shaping low frequencies. To seal the deal, this guitar leaves no detail to chance. Small touches, including locking tuners, a Bigsby B50 vibrato tailpiece with a roller bridge, a treble bleed circuit, and a dual-contact jack from Pure Tone, guarantee reliability and performance, making the Jetstream 290 fit for the long haul.

Vintage-inspired voltage: Reverend PA5 pickup power

Reverend's proprietary PA5 P-90 pickups deliver a robust and raw sound that’s teeming with bluesy character. This makes the Jetstream 290 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 PA5s 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 effortlessly contour your sound. 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 290.

Combat muddy lows with Bass Contour

Guitarists here often wonder why more guitars don't offer a bass roll-off control like the Jetstream 290’s Bass Contour knob. Traditional electric guitar tone knobs address high frequencies while leaving the low end non-adjustable without the addition of outboard gear. Bass Contour changes that. Dial it back just a bit to tighten up your rhythm tones, or roll it back further to emphasize attack and presence. Or use it in conjunction with the tone control for mid-focused tones you normally couldn't achieve without an EQ or filter pedal. What's more, even the Jetstream 290’s treble control is more flexible than a standard one, thanks to a treble bleed circuit that retains high frequencies, even at lower volumes.

Rock-ready quality right out of the box

The Jetstream 290’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, onboard pin-lock tuners and a Boneite nut ensure impeccable intonation and fewer tuning breaks. Internally, ±10% poly caps and control pots deliver boutique tone and performance, while a dual-action truss rod ensures a full range of adjustability should the need arise. Finally, each Jetstream 290 is numbered and initialed by a Reverend technician, adding a final personal touch to your beautifully crafted guitar.
