Designed in collaboration with guitarist Chris Freeman, the Reverend Chris Freeman Signature electric guitar takes the Double Agent platform to new heights. With upgraded electronics and customized appointments ideal for the touring musician, this guitar provides the tools needed to craft midwest emo's signature heart-on-sleeve lyricism. The signature model comes equipped with two kill switches for stutter effects that lend intensity to lead lines and choruses alike. The reverse headstock gives this guitar a distinctive silhouette onstage while also improving tuning stability. An upgraded Nuevo 90 in the bridge pickup position provides increased output and articulation for leads. With its thoughtfully designed reverse-mounted electronics, this guitar offers maximum protection against the rigors of touring. For guitarists who want to emulate the endlessly expressive playing style of midwest emo, the Chris Freeman Signature guitar is the perfect tool.

Craft Custom Stutter Effects With Twin Kill Switches

The Chris Freeman Signature guitar comes equipped with two kill switches to open up creative possibilities. The latching kill switch allows you to essentially add an extra stop and start point within a riff or melody for rhythmic interest. Engage it to cut out your signal entirely, creating arresting gaps in your phrases. The momentary kill switch functions more like a mute. Hold it down as you play to create cool stutter effects. Use both kill switches in tandem to intersperse your playing with dramatic pauses, rapid-fire stutters and unexpected silences. With this versatile control over articulation right at your fingertips, you can infuse your midwest emo lines with plenty of passion and unpredictability.

Reverse Headstock Provides Signature Silhouette and Stability

The Chris Freeman Signature guitar incorporates a reverse headstock for visual flare and functional benefits. The reversed six-in-line tuners give the headstock a highly distinctive look, creating an eye-catching silhouette whether onstage or hanging on your wall. More than just esthetics, the rear-facing tuners also enhance tuning stability by putting less tension on the nut. The strings make a gentler break angle over the nut, minimizing tuning issues from hard playing or heavy bending. Tuning reliability is crucial for guitarists who use lots of emotive embellishments and need to stay in tune through high-energy performances night after night.

Upgrade Your Tone With Nuevo 90 Bridge Pickup

Hot Mulligan's music revolves around huge, emotive guitar tones and the Chris Freeman Signature guitar delivers with an upgraded Nuevo 90 pickup in the bridge position. The Nuevo 90 uses an overwound design to deliver searing output, articulation and just a bit more growl and grit than the standard Reverend humbucker. When you dig in and let loose on those vocal midwest emo leads, this beefed up pickup ensures you'll cut through the mix with singing sustain and harmonics. Its focused low-mid bump provides the perfect counterbalance to a bright neck pickup, letting you easily dial in huge rock rhythm tones as well. If you want flexible tone shaping options inspired by Chris Freeman's setup, the Nuevo 90 is a smart upgrade.

Protected Electronics For Hard Touring

Since this signature model is built for the rigors of touring, Reverend gave the electronic components some extra protection. The volume and tone pots are mounted in a reversed configuration, keeping them safely under the pickguard. This shields them from routine wear and tear, ensuring longer lifespan and reliability even with heavy use. The reversed electronics orientation also helps shield the electronic cavities from sweat and grime. Whether you're playing sweaty clubs every night or just want a guitar built to go the distance, the Chris Freeman Signature model has you covered.
