The Yamaha Revstar Standard RSS20 electric guitar is an updated take on the original Revstar line, now with a sleek, café racer-inspired finish, plus dual Alnico V humbucking pickups and 5-way switching for excellent tone versatility. It has a maple top, chambered mahogany body and 3-piece mahogany neck with carbon reinforcement, developed using Yamaha's exclusive Acoustic Design process to enhance tone, reduce weight and ensure optimal balance without sacrificing resonance. Its sound is driven by dual humbucking pickups, as well as a passive focus switch for further tone sculpting. Additional appointments to the Revstar Standard RSS20 include a gloss body finish, satin neck finish and rosewood fingerboard with 22 stainless steel frets.
Our Acoustic Design process uses advanced measurement, analysis, and modeling tools to design guitar bodies that offer clear, powerful tone and maximum resonance.
Every new Revstar features a chambered body designed with our Acoustic Design process to sculpt tone, reduce weight, and optimize balance.
Revstar Professional and Standard models are available with your choice of custom-wound Alnico V pickups—powerful humbuckers or chiming P90-style single-coils.
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.
The Focus Switch boost on Professional and Standard models, and the Dry Switch filter on Revstar Element, provide even greater versatility.
