Note: There is some buckle rash on the back - nothing too deep.Folks this was it. The Guitar. Back in 2006 Ken Haas walked into my shop. He was Joe Naylor's #1 Salesman and he was looking for representation on Long island. "Sure you can stop by Ken, but I've got all the guitars I need". A couple of hours later when it was time for Ken to mosey on over I assume it is going to be a quick visit. Ken had this EXACT model in his hands. A Buckshot in Cream. Son of a bitch he had me at hello.The Buckshot was everything that Reverend is all at once. Totally distinct yet somehow totally familiar. In your hands it plays like a guitar with a price tag 3-4 times as expensive and it always delivers when the stage lights come on.11 years have passed since that first visit by Ken - who owns the company now - and Monster Music has bought THOUSANDS of Reverend Guitars over that time yet I still get that same feeling everytime I unbox a shipment and I will never forget the first time I looked at a Buckshot. - BrianSpecs on this beauty:
