Yamaha RSP02TCPG Revstar Professional

Electric Guitar


Please note: This guitar comes with a hardshell case.

Originally launched in 2015, Revstar was the first new electric guitar series from Yamaha in over a decade. A completely new lineup for 2022 offers three tiers, chambered bodies on every model, new racing-inspired finishes, new switching options, and left-handed models.

The Japanese-made RSP02T features carbon reinforcement in the neck and chambered body, dual P90-style pickups, 5-way switching, and a Focus Switch, providing exceptional versatility.

WHAT'S NEW IN THIS GENERATION

  • Chambered bodies developed with Yamaha’s Acoustic Design process to enhance tone, reduce weight, and optimise balance

  • Simplified three-tier lineup with choice of humbucking or P90-style pickups on Professional and Standard models

  • “Focus Switch” passive boost on Professional and Standard models

  • Left-handed models available in the Standard and Element tiers

  • A completely new range of café racer-inspired gloss finishes

Chambered Bodies
Every new Revstar features a chambered body designed with Yamaha’s Acoustic Design process to sculpt tone and increase resonance while reducing weight and optimising balance.

Carbon Reinforcement
Revstar Standard and Professional models feature carbon-reinforced necks. Professional models also add carbon reinforcement to the body for weight relief, vibration transfer, and tone shaping.

5-Way Switching
Standard and Professional models offer 5-way switching. In positions 2 and 4, our circuit slightly delays the opposite pickup for a new take on classic “in between” sounds.

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

Initial Response Acceleration (I.R.A.)
Revstar Professional guitars receive Yamaha’s I.R.A. treatment process which applies specific vibrations to release stresses in the instrument for a “played in” tone.
