D00D.
Here's what's up as of today (April 25th). The next shipment which lands around late May/early June will have the following changes/price increase. All this will be posted on our website around late next week:

ALL SET-NECKS
- Neck binding and pearloid block inlays.
- Street price (MAP) increase of $150.
- Addition of the Roundhouse RT (two RevTrons).
- Discontinuation of the Roundhouse 290.

ALL BOLT-ONS
- Black headstock (except on maple fingerboard necks).
- Street price (MAP) increase of $100.
- Flatroc in Cream will change to maple FB.

ALL GUITARS
- New Reverend Pin-Lock tuners. The string locks like a Sperzel, using a thumbwheel underneath. These are exceptionally smooth, high gear ratio tuners with removable thumbwheels so you can service/lube the gear and pin if need be. Also, the post is non-tapered, yielding a larger diameter to wrap around, which reduces string breakage. Not available separately.
This is all very exciting, except the price increase, but i guess it's worth it just for the locking tuners...
I seriously have been bonering over the setneck series for quite some time...

I saw this on the Rev board, they look kinda crappy IMO.

one looks like a bootleg Gretsch Duojet.

I'll see if I can find the pic.

I didn't see a pic of the Manta Ray, which I think is the only one that would look decent with all that extra stuff.

gah, those pictures aren't big enough to see the DETAILZ.

Besides, every REAL LIFE pic of a Reverend I've seen is 324p67340697x better than the advertisment pix.


The Volcano is actually the one I've been lusting over most.
