"Steals Shipment of Reverend Guitars: Urge to Report and Inform Authorities"
Reverend Guitars Experiences Theft of New Electric Guitars and Pickups
A shipment of 36 new electric guitars from Reverend Guitars, along with 180 Railhammer pickups, has been stolen during transit, CEO Ken Haas confirmed. Notably, these guitars were incomplete at the time of the theft, as mentioned by Haas in an Instagram post where he noted that they had no serial numbers on the headstocks. TheFLAGMENT pickups, Reverend's unique and patented product, were also found in bulk packaging.
The stolen merchandise comprised Manta Ray, Charger, and Descent models, including its flagship humbucker, known for its combination of rails under the wound strings and poles under the unwound strings. Railhammer Pickups are typically sold individually for around $140 apiece, making the current potential loss to the company significant, especially in today's music industry where numerous firms are grappling with the consequences of Donald Trump's tariffs.
In an effort to recover the stolen items, Haas has initiated a public awareness campaign on social media platforms, urging his followers to keep an eye out for the stolen guitars and report any sightings to both Reverend Guitars and the authorities. The company is also cooperating with law enforcement in their investigation of the theft.
In more positive news, Jack White has recently acquired Vernon Reid's eye-catching signature guitar after a chance encounter at an airport. The 'Totem Mystic Tramp', released last year and featuring googly eyes, joined White's collection.
