Reverend Billy Corgan Terz Electric Guitar

Description: The World's First Electric Terz Guitar For years, Billy Corgan has capo'd his axe at the third fret to simulate a Terz, a small-sized classical instrument tuned a minor third higher than a standard guitar. The Reverend Billy Corgan Terz is a real-deal electric Terz — the first production model ever. This idiosyncratic electric alto guitar was tailor-made for adding colorful accents and driving rhythm parts to spice up your layered arrangements. Its chambered korina body offers light weight along with enhanced resonance, while its string-through-body bridge lends a percussive attack and extra sustain to every note you play. The Billy Corgan Terz's 21.5-inch-scale neck permits this guitar to be tuned high while keeping the tension loose and playable. A Railhammer Billy Corgan Signature pickup infuses this axe with P-90-tinged humbucker tones; cutting-edge electronics, which include a Bass Contour control and a treble bleed circuit, take your tone from zero Sweetwater is an Authorized Reverend Dealer Genuine New Item Sweetwater's 2-year warranty and 55 point inspection Reverend Billy Corgan Terz Electric Guitar - Satin Pearl White 6-string Electric Alto Guitar with Korina Body, Maple Neck, Maple Fingerboard, and 1 Humbucking Pickup - Satin Pearl White The World's First Electric Terz Guitar For years, Billy Corgan has capo'd his axe at the third fret to simulate a Terz, a small-sized classical instrument tuned a minor third higher than a standard guitar.

The Billy Corgan Signature also includes ultra-reliable Reverend Pin-Lock tuning machines and a triple-tree string tree, plus head-turning aesthetics, thanks to a segmented aluminum pickguard and an eye-grabbing color scheme. If you're searching for a unique and inspiring sonic tool, the Billy Corgan Terz will add fresh textures to every project you use it on.Custom-shop-level construction and detail The Billy Corgan Terz teems with richness and warmth, thanks to its chambered korina body. Korina, a medium-light tonewood with mahogany-like sonic characteristics, delivers all the resonance you can handle, along with a lively, responsive, and harmonic-laden sound that's guaranteed to inspire. This solidbody electric boasts a 21.5-inch-scale maple neck and a 22-fret fingerboard, both heat treated at over 300°F for an eye-grabbing look and added stability, along with a convenient dual-action truss rod and a tone-heightening Boneite nut. The guitarists here at Sweetwater have found the Billy Corgan Terz's 12-inch-radius fingerboard to be among the most playable around. Finally, a hand-initialed, serial-numbered headstock lends a high-end, custom-shop vibe to this top-shelf electric guitar.Ultra-versatile electronics The Reverend Billy Corgan Terz churns out enough high-octane tone to pulverize a jack-o'-lantern. This hot-rodded axe's Billy Corgan Signature pickup vaunts a cutting-edge design derived from Railhammer's acclaimed humbuckers. This ceramic-loaded, dual-coil, P-90-style pickup features rails under the wound strings for tight, clear lows, along with poles under the plain strings for smooth, soaring highs — with zero hum. This pickup is a complete reimagining of the classic P-90, combining the vintage model's clarity and articulation with the thick, muscular sound of a humbucker. The Billy Corgan Signature pickup also exhibits a cocked-wah-inflected midrange bump that sounds amazing with heavy distortion or fuzz. You'll dig this electric alto guitar's Bass Contour control — a passive bass roll-off that not only tightens your low end, but also revoices your pickups. Everything from scorching high gain to bluesy leads and country-fied twang is easily within the reach of the Billy Corgan Terz. You also get a treble bleed circuit that preserves your high end when you roll back your volume control. Reverend's proprietary custom jack plate and Pure Tone jack round out the Billy Corgan Terz's robust features.Top-of-the-line hardware When you dive into the Billy Corgan Terz, you'll find high performance in every component. This guitar's Reverend Pin-Lock tuning machines lock your strings in place for out-of-this-world tuning stability and lightning-fast string changes. A patent-pending triple-tree string tree features an extended bar that holds down three strings at a time with a single tree. You'll adore how this string tree safeguards against G-string buzz in the guitar's nut slot. You also get a string-through-body bridge with stainless steel saddles for percussive attack, maximum sustain, and a solid tone that takes off like a rocket.Billy Corgan with one of his signature Reverend axes.Reverend Guitars: expertly crafted and designed with the player in mind From humble beginnings working out of a Detroit-area garage to worldwide praise and presence on the globe's biggest stages, Reverend Guitars has solidified its place as a reliable source of exquisite guitars and basses.
