Yamaha Revstar PROFESSIONAL RSP20 - Sunset Burst

The specialist's opinion

The RSP20 model, made in Japan, has carbon reinforcements on the neck and body.

In addition, all models are equipped with "chambered" bodies developed according to Yamaha's "exclusive Acoustic Design" process.

Using advanced measurement and modeling tools, Yamaha has developed the chambered design to acoustically sculpt tones, increase resonance while reducing weight and promoting balance. The RSP20 models are equipped with custom-designed humbuckers designed by Yamaha to fit guitars and feature Alnico V magnets to deliver a full, powerful tone. The Revstar professional has exceptional versatility thanks to a 5-position selector offering a subtle phase shift on positions 2 and 4 of the microphones and the Tone potentiometer incorporates a Push / Pull switch that activates a passive boost whose effect is similar to that obtained by over-wound pickups: more pronounced highs, more intense mids and lows and a particularly dynamic character.
