Reverend Spy in Chronic Blue Burst

We’re bringing back a Reverend classic — the bold and bright Spy, now in a stunning Chronic Blue Burst finish. Originally known for its trio of lipstick pickups and ultra-versatile switching, the Spy earned a loyal following for its shimmery highs, jangly cleans, and percussive snap. Now, it returns with upgraded features that honor its roots while packing even more punch.

At the heart of this limited-edition release are Reverend’s new Power Tube lipstick pickups — designed with stronger magnets and additional coil windings to deliver more output and presence, all while preserving the sparkling character that made the original Spy so beloved. With a push-pull Studio Switch in the tone control, you get seven pickup combinations, including neck+bridge and all-three-at-once settings for expanded tonal flexibility.

Whether you’re chasing garage grit, surf sparkle, or a modern indie edge, the Spy delivers with attitude and clarity. Players who appreciate quirky, expressive instruments — like Annie Clark (St. Vincent) or Nick Zinner (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) — would feel right at home on a guitar like this.

Limited run. Maximum vibe. Back and better than ever.
