This maple-topped double-cut’s lightweight chambered mahogany body is loaded with two rich and warm sounding VP5 pickups that deliver classic P-90 tones — from clean jazz textures on the neck pickup to wild overdriven leads on the bridge. The neck is comprised of carbon-reinforced mahogany so that it will stay straight and true in even the most challenging of environments. What’s more, Yamaha has equipped this Revstar with their proprietary “focus” switch that shifts your tone’s resonant frequency and supercharges your pickup’s power. If you’re looking for a high-performance, no-nonsense axe with explosive tones, rock-solid playability, and sleek modern aesthetics, the RSS02T sets the standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Revstar’s curvy lines and classic aesthetics are said to be inspired by the utilitarian British Café racer motorbikes found in 1960s-era London, adding a tough no-frills attitude to these sleek guitars. The unique double-cut chambered body was developed using Yamaha’s Acoustic Design process to optimize the Revstar’s balance, deliver a resonant tone, and reduce weight. One strum of the RSS02T is all it takes to see how Yamaha’s research paid off: the Revstar’s body is a supremely comfortable design that showcases Yamaha’s steadfast dedication to musical innovation!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eevery guitarist should have a guitar loaded with P-90 single-coil pickups in their collection. You get the snap and spank of a single-coil pickup, but with the girth and low-mid richness that you'd expect from a humbucker. The custom-designed VP5 P-90 pickups in the RSS02T utilize Alnico V magnets, a silver baseplate, and plain enamel wire, creating a clear, vintage-inspired tone with plenty of bite. Set your tube amplifier at its breakup point, and you'll be able to take the RSS02T from clean and chiming to blazing overdrive just with the volume knob.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYamaha’s Revstar line already introduced us to their clarity-boosting “Dry” switch, and the RSS02T offers another distinct tonal feature to stand out from the crowd: the “Focus” switch. This dual-purpose push-pull switch adjusts the resonant frequency of your guitar’s tone and kicks up the power. it’s an incredibly versatile feature that’s just as good at achieving “rolled off” jazz tones as it is for boosting your amp into overdrive territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltra-comfortable and lightweight chambered mahogany body with a maple top\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-piece carbon-reinforced mahogany set neck with double-cutaway offers incredible upper fret access\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYamaha VP5 P-90 pickups deliver pristine and organic clean tones, with the classic P-90 bite when overdriven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e“Focus” switch shifts your tone’s resonant frequency and amps up your power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJumbo stainless steel frets are highly resistant to wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly playable 12-inch fingerboard radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRock-solid Tune-o-matic bridge and sleek racing tailpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBODY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Type\u003c\/strong\u003eSolidbody, chambered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Shape\u003c\/strong\u003eRevstar Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material\u003c\/strong\u003eMahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Material\u003c\/strong\u003eMaple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Finish\u003c\/strong\u003eGloss Polyurethane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003eHot Merlot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNECK\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Material\u003c\/strong\u003e3-piece Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Shape\u003c\/strong\u003eRevstar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Joint\u003c\/strong\u003eSet Neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRadius\u003c\/strong\u003e12\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Material\u003c\/strong\u003eRosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Inlay\u003c\/strong\u003ePearloid Lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Frets\u003c\/strong\u003e22, Jumbo Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length\u003c\/strong\u003e24.75\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Width\u003c\/strong\u003e1.649\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Material\u003c\/strong\u003ePPS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHARDWARE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridge\/Tailpiece\u003c\/strong\u003eTune-O-Matic Bridge with Racing Tailpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTuners\u003c\/strong\u003eDie-cast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eELECTRONICS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Pickup\u003c\/strong\u003eVP5n Alnico V Single-coil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridge Pickup\u003c\/strong\u003eVP5b Alnico V Single-coil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControls\u003c\/strong\u003e1 x master volume, 1 x master tone (push\/pull focus switch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSwitching\u003c\/strong\u003e5-way blade pickup switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Yamaha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42510781153517,"sku":"RSS02T HM","price":1099.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0085\/8118\/5613\/products\/8580de03f269dcf599c97b96034edeec.jpg?v=1735842992","url":"https:\/\/musiccitycanada.com\/products\/yamaha-revstar-standard-rss02t-electric-guitar-with-gig-bag-hot-merlot","provider":"Music City Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
