Guitar Revstar

Vintage Vibe with Modern Tone
Inspired by the 1974 Yamaha Super Flighter guitar, the RS820CR Revstar solidbody electric guitar combines distinctive looks with cutting tone. The mahogany body and maple top are contoured for gigging comfort, while the Revstar neck profile and jumbo frets deliver smooth, precise playability. A pair of Yamaha YGD Custom VH5 humbucking pickups serves up a wide tonal range, further enhanced by the push-pull Dry switch that enables single-coil-like tones. With excellent craftsmanship, distinguished tone, and great playability, the Yamaha RS820CR Revstar is an outstanding guitar in its class.
