The Airwave 12-String is a seriously cool instrument. Reverend’s smart design choices—the Korina body, short scale, and P90 pickups—create a rich, harmonically complex voice perfect for jangle-pop, indie rock, and vintage-inspired tones. It’s a premium-priced 12-string that feels and sounds like a much more expensive instrument.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Fender 12-strings tend to be brighter and thinner; the Airwave's Korina and P90s offer a warmer, fatter, and more sustain-rich sound.
The Medium Oval profile is a fairly standard, comfortable shape, but the 1.75” nut width might feel a bit snug for those with very large hands.
It primarily rolls off high-end frequencies, smoothing out the P90's bite and adding a touch of warmth, rather than drastically changing the tone.
