General
The Yamaha RSP20CR is the flagship model for Yamaha's Revstar series. Japanese craftsmanship is combined with the company's rich and varied history. The Revstar embraces the concept of a no-nonsense, stripped-down motorcycle, and incorporates it into a sublime electric guitar. First-class materials combined with Japanese ingenuity and know-how make the RSP20CR into a remarkable instrument in both look and sound. This Brushed Black edition comes with a luxury case.
Yamaha RSP20CR Brushed Black: high-quality components
The basis of the Revstar RSP20CR's sound is formed by the guitar's mahogany body - though also of note is the maple top, that gives it some extra clarity and bite. Furthermore, it features a set-in mahogany neck with a relatively short 25.75" scale length for optimal comfort. Top-quality parts like the Graph Tech TUSQ string nut and the TonePros AVT-II bridge offer excellent tuning stability and help this guitar resonate freely. The Dry Switch (push-pull) expands the palette of sounds even further.
Revstar: something for everyone
Every detail of the RevStar series has been treated with care and attention so that each individual model stands out in its own unique way. To do this, Yamaha gathered inspiration from the vintage motorbikes that can be seen in the streets of London and Tokyo. From curved lines to completely newly-designed body shapes to characteristic finishes, these electric guitars are the result of years of expert craftsmanship. This line of guitars is just as diverse as the guitarists who play them!
