YAMAHA RSE20 Revstar Electric Guitar - Swift Blue
Comfortably curved Revstar Body
The 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 RSE20 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!
Punchy Alnico V pickups
A pair of Yamaha’s Alnico V humbucking pickups equips the RSE20 with a versatile tonal palette, perfect for both decidedly modern high-gain tones, classic grit, and everything in between! The RSE20’s dual humbuckers, set-neck design, and mahogany body form a classic combo, boasting boatloads of sustain with a pronounced boost in the mid frequencies.
Turn up the clarity with Yamaha's “Dry” switch
When creating the Revstar, Yamaha were inspired to create something fresh and distinct. So, instead of including a coil-split, the RSE20 sports a highpass push-pull “Dry” switch. This switch is purposely built to kick up your RSE20’s definition by tightening up your low end and sharpening your trebles. Just like a traditional coil-split, this drastically increases clarity and cutting power — but without any of the hum associated with a single-coil pickup!
