I have my eye on the Reverend Slingshot or Slingshot Custom (2 p90s or 3 p90s).

Anyone have one or have played one and want to share your thoughts?

TIA
 
I played a Slingshot and a couple of other models at Reverend's booth at the Dallas Guitar Show this past April. Brad from ToneFactor owns an Avenger, and I played his as well while demoing some pedals.

The Slingshot is a good guitar. I like everything about it, although I would have a hard time adjusting to the metal rim on the body. The neck is shaped comfortably if you like vintage styled necks, and the body balance is even. Pickups sound great too.
 
I don't have one, but I considered getting the Slingshot a few years back, and sought it out to play. I was surprized at the degree to which I liked the feel of the neck, while simultaneously being repulsed by the feel of the body. It sounded great, but the body just didn't work for me. Up until that point, I didn't think I was such a traditionalist!

I recommend you make the effort to try one, because they do sound very good.
