Pete Anderson has been a force in country music for decades, lighting up the stage and studio as a guitarist, producer, and musical director for Dwight Yoakam, Tanya Tucker, Michelle Shocked, and many more. Pete Anderson and Reverend’s original Eastsider collaboration made waves by combining modern T-style twang with signature Reverend appointments. Still, this time, Reverend and Pete have teamed up for fine-tuned Eastsider Custom that has players saying “Less Paul, More Pete!” Two humbucking pickups — an aggressive, articulate Telbucker in the bridge and PAF-style HA5 in the neck — naturally accentuate driving styles ranging from howlin’ blues to arena leads. And just like the original, the Eastsider Custom features a chambered korina body for unparalleled high-fidelity warmth. A riveting ebony fingerboard and compound radius deliver ruthlessly efficient fretting and comfort alongside premium gig-ready components like Pin-Lock tuners, a Pure Tone jack, and boutique-grade wiring. A 3-piece set korina neck seals this incredible deal — it’s a favorite that’s a rare find for T-style axes. This neck fuels superior comfort when reaching for upper frets, not to mention mind-blowing sustain for classic humbucker oomph that lets korina’s mahogany-like resonance shine. Simply put, this Eastsider Custom is unlike any other T-guitar we’ve ever played!

Tailored “T” humbuckers

Pete Anderson is known for dishing out Southern-tinged twang, but when the rhythm section gets loud, even countrified players reach for humbuckers to keep their riffs present and powerful. The Eastsider Custom is loaded with two humbuckers: Reverend’s flagship HA5 in the neck for smooth PAF-style tones with modern fidelity and a new custom Telbucker in the bridge. This innovative Telbucker delivers true punchy bridge humbucker tones with a dual-rail design that preserves those iconic T-style looks. Dual rails give the Telbucker tight and refined low-end while also preventing drop-offs when bending. Also onboard is a push-pull tone knob that activates phase switching for instant funky articulation with extra soul. And in true Reverend fashion, these pickups are outfitted to the nines with a host of premium electronics, including an upgraded Pure Tone output jack, a treble bleed circuit, and 10% pots and polyester capacitors for boutique tone at every turn.

Custom-shop-level construction and detail

This guitar’s chambered korina body teems with richness and warmth like no “T” you’ve ever played. Korina’s mahogany-like sonics deliver all the resonance you can handle, along with a lively, responsive, and harmonic-laden sound that’s guaranteed to inspire. Paired with that is an elegant set korina neck that not only enhances resonance and sustain, but is also incredibly roadworthy with ultra-stable 3-piece construction that resists warps and shifts. The neck is topped with a stunning ebony fingerboard with 22 frets and a 10–14-inch compound radius for top-notch playability with a notable boost in comfort and upper-fret access from the set korina neck. Finally, a hand-initialed, serial-numbered headstock lends a high-end, custom-shop vibe to this top-shelf electric guitar.

Top-of-the-line hardware

When you dive into the Pete Anderson Eastsider Custom, 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. Plus, it’s equipped with a convenient dual-action truss rod and a tone-heightening Boneite nut. Rounding out the Eastsider Custom’s mod-shop good looks is a set of custom knobs, tastefully embossed with the letter “R,” and a custom Eastsider headstock logo you won’t find anywhere else!
