The Reverend Bob Balch Signature electric guitar lets you tap into the thick, fuzz-drenched tone that Bob Balch has used for over 20 years as guitarist for Fu Manchu. Built on Reverend's acclaimed Sensei platform, the Bob Balch Signature model features beveled body edges and a chamber under the pickguard for enhanced resonance.

Premium Pickups for a Fuzz-Friendly Foundation

At the heart of the Bob Balch Signature's sound are a pair of Railhammer Bob Balch Signature pickups. Wound to Bob's exacting specifications, these pickups deliver a hot, yet articulate tone with rich midrange ideal for fuzz and overdrive. The bridge pickup provides tight lows and crisp highs, while the neck pickup is warmer and rounder. A three-way selector switch lets you access each pickup individually or blend them together.

Ergonomic Korina Body and Neck

The Bob Balch Signature's solid korina body is contoured for playing comfort, with bevels along the edges and rear. Korina, a medium-light hardwood, provides an ideal balance of warmth, clarity and sustain. The set-in korina neck has an oval profile that feels substantial yet fast. Its 12" radius rosewood fingerboard has 22 medium-jumbo frets for expressive lead work and intricate chords.

Versatile Hardware for Dynamic Performance

Equipped with a Wilkinson tremolo bridge, the Bob Balch Signature delivers shimmering pitch bends and warbles. Locking tuners provide rock-solid intonation no matter how aggressively you use the tremolo. Volume and tone knobs, along with a three-way pickup selector, give you total control over the guitar's sound. With premium components inspired by Bob Balch's pursuit of the ultimate rock guitar tone, the Reverend Bob Balch Signature will take your playing to heady new heights.
