Reverend Guitars Descent Wilkinson Baked Orange – Modern Baritone Power

The Reverend Guitars Descent Wilkinson Baked Orange stands out as a forward-thinking baritone electric guitar, crafted for musicians who desire both powerful low frequencies and refined playability. Its lightweight korina body and 678 mm scale roasted maple neck invite exploration of new sonic territories without sacrificing comfort. With Railhammer Cleancut and Nuevo 90 pickups, the Descent Wilkinson produces hum-free, P90-like sounds—sharp lows, warm highs, and remarkable clarity. Players benefit from a sculpted body and vivid Baked Orange finish, offering easy upper fret access and bold stage presence.

Innovative Features for Dynamic Play

Key to this instrument’s versatility are the exclusive Railhammer pickups and the innovative Bass Contour control. Narrow rails under wound strings and large pole pieces under plain strings combine for precise bass and full, singing treble. Adjust the Bass Contour to achieve crisp rhythms or single-coil-like brightness—something rarely possible on a baritone. The Wilkinson WVS50 IIK tremolo adds expressive pitch effects while keeping tuning locked in, even under heavy use.

• Body:Korina solidbody — delivers a lively, harmonically rich sound with minimal weight
• Neck:Roasted maple, medium oval profile — provides stability, smoothness, and visual appeal with little need for seasonal adjustment
• Players will appreciate the rosewood fingerboard (305 mm radius), which balances classic tactile feel with modern comfort for extended sessions.
