Description: Disarm with an Optimized D-tuned Axe The overloaded signature sound of Smashing Pumpkins founder Billy Corgan gets even heavier at a full step down with the Billy Corgan Drop Z Signature! Specially designed to accommodate standard D tuning, the Drop Z stretches to an elongated 26.25 inches in scale length and serves up a 24-fret range for a deeper and sonically versatile setup. But throughout the rest of this 6-string, you’ll find appointments that render it virtually identical to its Reverend Z-One cousin, including a roasted maple neck and fingerboard, hardtail bridge, pin-lock tuning machines, and that cosmically retro offset alder body. Also like Corgan’s original signature, the Drop Z offers a natural and supple playability that responds well and feels confident in hand, courtesy of details like a Boneite nut, triple-tree string tree, and a medium oval neck profile. From triple-tracked alternative riffing and heavy-metal flirtation to the gorgeous Sweetwater is an Authorized Reverend Dealer Genuine New Item Sweetwater's 2-year warranty and 55 point inspection Reverend Billy Corgan Drop Z Signature Electric Guitar - Pearl White Solidbody Electric Guitar with Alder Body, Maple Neck and Fingerboard, and 2 Humbucking Pickups - Pearl White Disarm with an Optimized D-tuned Axe The overloaded signature sound of Smashing Pumpkins founder Billy Corgan gets even heavier at a full step down with the Billy Corgan Drop Z Signature! Specially designed to accommodate standard D tuning, the Drop Z stretches to an elongated 26.25 inches in scale length and serves up a 24-fret range for a deeper and sonically versatile setup.

From triple-tracked alternative riffing and heavy-metal flirtation to the gorgeous clarity of down-tuned arpeggiations, guitarists at Sweetwater just can’t get enough of the Drop Z!Streamlined for down-tuned efficiency Reverend optimized this axe with several structural features that permit low and powerful play. To start, the scale length of the Drop Z measures 26.25 inches, landing on the longer end of standard electrics but not quite the distance of a full-blown baritone. This makes it perfect for standard D tuning! It also gains a pair of extra nickel alloy frets over the traditional Z-One model, totaling 24 for an extremely versatile range that can both dive deep and shoot to the surface with swift smoothness. And speaking of which, its medium oval-profiled roasted maple neck and matching 12-inch radius fingerboard bring forth a stellar amount of natural articulation to ensure that those driving low notes aren’t muddied and remained defined.Custom humbuckers for a thicker, smoother sound If you're a fan of any of Billy Corgan's musical ventures, the Drop Z dishes out the same searing heat and screaming power that accompanies his scintillating solos. To deliver just that, Reverend loaded this signature 6-string with a pair of Corgan's custom Railhammer Z-One humbuckers — Sweetwater guitarists welcomed the waves of full-bodied tone these pickups dish out, commanding audiences with amp-pummeling aggression yet smooth enough for absolute clarity. Reverend's lauded Bass Contour Knob makes its way into the Drop Z, a passive bass roll-off that not only tightens your low end, but also revoices this guitar's pickups for even greater versatility. You also get a treble bleed circuit that preserves your high end when you roll back your volume control along with a sturdy Pure Tone jack, the "Cherry" on top of this rock-solid signature guitar.Top-of-the-line hardware When you dive into the Billy Corgan Drop Z, 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.
