Yamaha RSS20LSWB Left-Handed Revstar Standard

Please note: This guitar comes with a gig bag.

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 left-handed RSS20L features two finish options, a chambered body and carbon-reinforced neck, dual humbucking pickups, 5-way switching, and a passive 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.
