Revstar Standard: The "Café Racer" DNA at the Heart of the Range
Launched in 2015, the Revstar series marked Yamaha's return to the electric guitar segment with a strong identity. The RSS02T represents the Standard level: race-inspired finishes, refined ergonomics, and luthiery innovations (chambered body, Focus Switch) inherited from Japanese craftsmanship, making it a reliable instrument both on stage and in the studio.
For Which Guitarist and Styles?
Versatile and expressive, the RSS02T targets intermediate to expert musicians seeking a responsive electric guitar. The P90s add character in rock, blues, indie, garage, and funk, while offering articulate cleans for pop and warm tones for jazz on the neck pickup.
The Sound
The P90 VP5 duo delivers a gritty tone, present mids, and a sharp attack. The 5-position selector offers clear and scooped "in-between" tones, while the push/pull "Focus Switch" tightens the response and simulates the behavior of overwound pickups for denser leads. The chambered mahogany body adds air and projection, the maple top provides brightness and definition, and the Tune-O-Matic/Stopbar setup ensures sustain and tuning stability.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
Nickel strings 10-46 (factory set) to maintain tension and tonal balance; standard guitar strap (fits original strap buttons) for optimal comfort; capo for electric guitar with standard curvature, suitable for 12" radius. The deluxe padded gig bag is included.
