Speaking with a modern vintage voice

Yamaha Revstar RSS02T Sunset Burst

The Revstar RSS02T Sunset Burst from Yamaha brings together modern specifications with a distinctive vintage charm. At its core are two powerful AlNiCo 5 P90 single coils, covering a wide musical spectrum from clear cleans through to cutting riffs. The five-way pickup switch also offers out-of-phase sounds alongside the usual range of configurations, and hidden beneath the tone control pot is a passive mid and bass boost. The defining idea here is flexibility – and in practice, the Revstar proves exceptionally adaptable, a true everyday workhorse for musicians. The build is equally noteworthy: The mahogany body features moderate chambering in the sides, making the guitar lighter while also giving it an extremely resonant and lively tonal response. The Revstar delivers a very boutique vibe at an appealing price point.

A classic reimagined

The look of the Yamaha Revstar is unmistakable. It feels like a timeless classic from guitar history – just seen through a 21st-century lens. The choice of woods follows a tried-and-tested formula: The mahogany body and neck provide a mid-focused sound profile, while the maple top adds a pleasing high-end presence. The rosewood fingerboard, featuring white-line inlays and 22 jumbo stainless steel frets, combines with the 12" radius and C-shaped neck profile to deliver a very comfortable playing experience. The neck is reinforced with carbon strips, enhancing stability and making the Revstar less susceptible to changing conditions. This construction not only improves durability, but also benefits the guitar's resonance and sustain. In that sense, Yamaha has taken classic guitar specifications and carried them confidently into a new era.

Powerful P90 pickups

The tone of P90 pickups can be described as bright and articulate, with strong midrange presence and a pleasing high-end structure. The AlNiCo 5 P90s fitted to the Revstar have a moderate output, allowing for dynamic playing from clean tones through to mid-gain sounds – ideal for vintage enthusiasts. At higher gain settings, P90s are prone to some noise; however, many players gladly accept this trade-off for their legendary timbre. Even with fuzz tones, the pickups stand out for their clarity and dynamic response, making solos and riffs shine. All in all, the Yamaha Revstar RSS02T is a modern instrument capable of covering a broad musical range, from Rock and Blues to Funk. For guitarists focused on modern high-gain sounds, the humbucker-fitted RSS20 is worth considering.

About Yamaha

For decades, Yamaha has been one of the world's best-known manufacturers of musical instruments and audio technology. The Japanese company's long history began at the end of the 19th century with the harmonium. The product range has constantly expanded since then, which has made Yamaha one of the few manufacturers today to offer almost the entire range of existing musical instruments: From upright and grand pianos to guitars, wind instruments, and bowed string instruments and from drums and percussion to electronic keyboards and synthesizers. Yamaha is also a major force in the field of audio engineering as a manufacturer of mixing consoles, amplifiers, PA systems, and more. Yamaha's guiding principle is to combine traditional craftsmanship with state-of-the-art technology.

A very flexible sound

The Yamaha Revstar RSS02T features a range of modern specifications that make it highly versatile in practice. In particular, the cleverly designed circuitry around the P90 pickups makes this guitar into a powerful all-rounder across a wide variety of settings. Thanks to the dynamic response of the pickups, the volume and tone controls allow for excellent clean-up, enabling a wide palette of sounds even with an overdriven amplifier. In combination with the integrated focus boost and the out-of-phase configurations, it's entirely possible to play an entire show with just the Revstar, a good amplifier – and perhaps a tuner! Of course, it also performs convincingly in more complex setups. The Yamaha Revstar RSS02T will appeal equally to ambitious players and professional guitarists, who will know to value its chambered build especially. For safe transport, a high-quality gig bag is included as standard.

Yamaha guitars are back again
Factotum 23.11.2023
What to say? Look on YouTube, everyone is talking about this "overlooked guitar". This is a masterpiece build in Indonesia. ( the real masterpiece is de "pro" version, build in Japan)
After the Yamaha SG and Pacifica, yet again a top guitar. The range of sound possibilities is overwhelming. For that price a no brainer.

For this kind of money: ridiculous
Skjulet 03.09.2022
I was in the market for a P90-guitar, and ran into the upgraded Revstar-series during my research. Highly praised in ever review, I decided to try the Revstar ahead of the Fender Noventa Jazzmaster and Gibson Les Paul. And boy, did I save some money.

The least important first; pure visuals as I opened the gigbag on arrival was gorgeous. It looks like an icicle with the nice sunset birst. Picking it up, you understand why the reviews highlight the craftmanship. Feels good, solid, and no flaws or marks anywhere. Bindings way better than more expensive counterparts! Fairly light and compact, which really suits my preferences. Balances nicely on the strap, no diving or wobbling.

Then you plug it in, and immediately hear you got a rockmachine in your hands. Nice growly low end (which muds up a little on high gain) with balanced mids is perfect for rythm and riffing. Punch in the boost, and it's ready for leads.

The flexibility of this guitar is the absolutt highlight. Pickup switch positions 1 and 5 give you what you know; neck or bridge P90 alone, with all that comes with a P90. Then you go to positions 2 or 4, and get a serial delayed bridge after neck or vice versa, and the hint of vintage single coil sweetness adds to the sound of the growly P90. Hard to describe, worth experiencing. Positions 2 with a little drive and a delay, you got mellow rock tones for ages. The 5-way switch and the pull-booster on the tone knobs makes it almost impossible to put down, as it is way to fun discovering tones with this very playable guitar (stainless steel frets with the smoothest out-of-the-box finish in any guitar I've owned. You kidding?!)

Taking the price into consideration, this might just be the best guitar purchase I've done so far.

Brilliant guitar for the price
kdndo 11.03.2023
Yamaha really brought home the quality and craftsmanship on this piece of instrument. I'm absolutely blown away with the amount of tone options you have between the push-pull pot and the 5-way selector switch. The build quality is honestly that of a much more expensive instrument and far superior to mexican fenders these days.
