Reverend Debuts New Ron Asheton Signature Jetstream 390
Featuring a trio of Reverend 9A5 P-90-style pickups and a Wilkinson WVS50 IIK tremolo, this axe is based on the late Stooges legend's own Jetstream 390.
Reverend has debuted its new Ron Asheton Signature Jetstream 390 guitar.
The new guitar - modeled after the Jetstream 390 the hugely influential guitar legend rocked with The Stooges during their mid-oughts reunion - features a korina body, a medium oval roasted maple neck and a 22-fret pau ferro fingerboard.
A trio of Reverend 9A5 P-90-style pickups and a Wilkinson WVS50 IIK tremolo also come standard, in addition to a lightning bolt trio decal on the upper horn.
Like all of its Reverend brethren, the guitar also features a Boneite nut and locking tuners, the company's Bass Contour Control and a dual-action truss rod.
The Reverend Ron Asheton Signature Jetstream 390 is available now - in Asheton's favorite Rock Orange finish - for $1,329.
