Season 3 – Ep. 16 – The Best Guitar Brand You May Not Know About Yet with Ken Haas Of Reverend Guitars

Author: Powered By Rock October 31, 2022 Duration: 1:13:23

I am going to be speaking to Ken Haas from Reverend guitars today.

Reverend Guitars is celebrating their 25th Anniversary this year, and it’s pretty safe to say that if you are a guitar player you have probably heard of them by now.

Ken is the CEO of Reverend Guitars, and he also plays in J. Navarro and the Traitors, the Polka Floyd Show, and Zimmerman Twins as a guitarist and vocalist. He’s not just a suit and tie at a company. He is a musician first and foremost, and man, I will say, from watching his videos on YouTube, he can absolutely play.

I am going to be speaking with Ken about the long journey so far, the company’s history, the uniqueness of their guitars, and where Reverend goes from here right after this.
