Chambered body

This Revstar features a chambered body designed with Yamaha’s Acoustic Design process to sculpt tone and increase resonance while reducing weight and optimizing balance.

Carbon reinforced neck

Revstar Standard and Professional models feature three piece mahogany necks with carbon-reinforced, creating stronger and more resonant instruments.

5-way switching

This system offers unique alternatives to standard "Bridge-Both-Neck" switching. In positions 2 and 4, this circuit slightly delays the opposite pickup for a new take on classic “in between” sounds.

Focus switch

The push/pull Focus Switch activates a passive boost that darkens highs while increasing bass and mids for an effect like overwound pickups.

Tune-O-Matic bridges help to ensure your guitar is properly intonated, while optimizing the resonant transfer between the strings and body.
