The popular Yamaha "REVSTAR series" is back with a full model change!

1. Inheritance and development of a unique design reminiscent of motorcycles
The distinctive body shape of the "REVSTAR Series" inherits the design of the previous models, but has been transformed from the traditional cool and inorganic image of the "Café Racer," a style of custom motorcycle born in London in the 1960s, to a modern, racy and colorful Café Racer style The new design is inspired by the contemporary racy and colorful café racer style.
Silver metallic hardware, rich and colorful color finishes, and modern, racy styling.

2. a fusion of dynamic and tight sounds, two types of pickups, a new five-position selector, and a focus switch to create a wide range of unique sounds.

The "REVSTAR Series" was designed to maximize the vibrations of the guitar body based on "Acoustic Design," a design process that utilizes Yamaha's unique acoustic analysis and 3D modeling to create a superior sound as a musical instrument.
In addition, by incorporating carbon fiber not only in the neck but also in the body, unnecessary low frequencies are eliminated, resulting in a tight sound.
In addition, a new function that we developed independently is the "5-position selector," which delays the signal of one pickup slightly to select a halftone tone without reducing the volume, and the "focus switch," which enhances the midrange by using a small passive transformer. The "Focus Switch" enhances the midrange using a small passive transformer. 3.

Newly developed body structure for natural and comfortable playability and durability

All models in the "REVSTAR Series" are chambered, which not only affects the sound, but also reduces weight.
In addition, a 1.5 fret deeper neck joint, lightweight pegs, and uniquely shaped strap pins have been adopted to reduce weight without head drop.
The neck features a satin finish, jumbo frets, and Yamaha's unique set neck joint for smoother fingering and playability.
