Yamaha Revstar Electric Guitars

MEET YOUR OTHER HALF

A NEW GENERATION

The original Revstar guitars launched in 2015—Yamaha's first new electric guitar series in more than a decade. A completely refreshed lineup was introduced in 2022.

MUSIC AND MOTORS

The Revstar style is inspired by café racer motorcycles—stripped-down performance machines that were customized to reflect the personality of their riders.

MODERN. CLASSIC.

Revstar balances Japanese innovation and traditional artisanship. Modern features enhance playability, versatility, and tone, while the design references classic Yamaha electric guitars going back to 1966.

HANKO MARK

Used in place of a signature in Japan, the hanko stamp on every Revstar guitar is Yamaha's seal of approval. Element and Standard models feature the “Revstar” hanko, while the stamp on Professional models signifies “Made in Japan.”

THE NEW STANDARD

With two available pickup configurations, 5-way switching, and the Focus Switch passive boost, the new Revstar Standard is all about versatility.

KEY FEATURES

  • ACOUSTIC DESIGN - Revstar's Acoustic Design process uses advanced measurement, analysis, and modeling tools to design guitar bodies that offer clear, powerful tone and maximum resonance.
  • CHAMBERED BODIES - Every new Revstar features a chambered body designed with their Acoustic Design process to sculpt tone, reduce weight, and optimize balance.
  • CHOOSE YOUR SOUND - Revstar Professional and Standard models are available with your choice of custom-wound Alnico V pickups—powerful humbuckers or chiming P90-style single-coils.
  • 5-WAY PICKUP SELECTOR - Every Revstar Professional and Standard is a two-pickup guitar with the flexibility of a three-pickup guitar, providing players with a versatile range of sounds.
  • SWITCH ON - The Focus Switch boost on Professional and Standard models, and the Dry Switch filter on Revstar Element, provide even greater versatility.
