Defining Features of the Sensei H90

What distinguishes the Sensei H90 is its pairing of a custom Steelhead noiseless P90 in the neck with a Steelhead humbucker in the bridge—both exclusive to Reverend. The hybrid configuration enables seamless shifts between classic single-coil sparkle and robust humbucker power, all without noise. Not only does the korina construction contribute harmonic depth and dynamic response, but it also keeps the guitar lightweight, a rarity in set-neck electrics at this level.

Set-Neck Construction & Comfort

Effortless fret access and impressive stability make the Sensei H90 a favorite among demanding players. With its slim, double-cutaway korina body and three-piece set neck, the guitar encourages extended sessions and easier upper-fret solos. This ergonomic build benefits those who spend hours performing or recording.

• Body Material:Korina solidbody — yields articulate, resonant tone with a lively feel
• For fast playability, a 3-piece korina set-neck is combined with a 12" radius ebony fingerboard.
• Fingerboard:Ebony, 12" radius (305 mm) — provides smooth, fast action

Electronics & Player-Focused Controls

The Sensei H90’s electronics maximize tonal flexibility. By adjusting the bass contour and treble bleed circuits, players can move from full-bodied chords to crisp single-coil sounds, with high-end clarity preserved at lower volumes. The 3-way selector allows for rapid pickup changes, making this model adaptable on stage or in the studio.

• Pickups:Steelhead noiseless P90 (neck), Steelhead humbucker (bridge) — classic to modern tones with zero hum
• Switching the bass contour tightens low end or mimics single-coil response.
• Treble Bleed Circuit:Preserves brightness at lower volumes

Hardware Precision & Durability

Reliability is a hallmark of the Sensei H90’s hardware. Pin-lock tuners ensure stable tuning and facilitate fast string swaps, while the Boneite nut minimizes friction for smoother adjustments. Sustain and intonation are optimized by the Tune-o-matic bridge with stop tailpiece, and a Pure Tone jack gives a secure cable connection for worry-free gigs.

• Tuners:Pin-lock, 20:1 ratio — fast, stable, and ideal for gigging musicians
• The Boneite nut (43 mm width) supports accurate tuning stability throughout performances.
• Bridge:Tune-o-matic with stop tailpiece — ensures sustain and accurate intonation
