The Yamaha Revstar Standard RSS02T 6-String Electric Guitar is inspired by café racer motorcycles, stripped-down performance machines that were customized to reflect the personality of their riders. It features P90-style single-coil pickups with 5-way switching and the Focus Switch boost, with a custom racing tailpiece.

Modern Classic

The Revstar balances Japanese innovation and traditional artisanship. Modern features enhance playability, versatility, and tone, while the design references classic Yamaha electric guitars going back to 1966.

Hanko Mark

Used in place of a signature in Japan, the Hanko stamp on every Revstar guitar is our seal of approval. Element and Standard models feature the 'Revstar' Hanko, while the stamp on Professional models signifies 'Made in Japan'.

Acoustic Design

The Acoustic Design process uses advanced measurement, analysis, and modeling tools to design guitar bodies that offer clear, powerful tone and maximum resonance.

Chambered Bodies

Every new Revstar features a chambered body designed with the Acoustic Design process to sculpt tone, reduce weight, and optimize balance.

5-Way Switching

Positions 2 and 4 slightly delay the opposite pickup for a subtle phase shift that offers a fresh take on classic 'in-between' sounds.

Choose Your Sound

Revstar Professional and Standard models are available with your choice of custom-wound Alnico V pickups, powerful humbuckers or chiming P90-style single-coils.

5-Way Pickup Selector

Every Revstar Professional and Standard is a two-pickup guitar with the flexibility of a three-pickup guitar, providing players with a versatile range of sounds.

Switch On

The Focus Switch boost on Professional and Standard models, and the Dry Switch filter on Revstar Element, provide even greater versatility.

Focus Switch

The push/pull tone control activates a passive boost with an effect similar to overwound pickups darker highs, increased mids and lows, and an aggressive character.
