NAMM 2019: Yamaha debuts 5 new Revstar electric guitars

NAMM 2019: Yamaha has announced five new Revstar electric guitar models, each packing updated finishes, hardware and pickup configurations.

The premium RS820CR, Bigsby-equipped RS702B and RS720BX, plus the P-90-loaded RS502TFMX and RS502TFM all come equipped with the Revstar’s Dry Switch, which allows players to dial back the low-end for a more single-coil-like tone.

Head on through for info and street prices for each of the new models, and visit Yamaha Guitars for more info.

PRESS RELEASE: Designed to race from coffee shop to coffee shop on the streets of London in the 1960s, Café Racer bikes were high-performance racers stripped down to their bare essentials, but still reflected the style of their owner. The RS820 captures that spirit of total focus on performance and cannot be fully appreciated until it is taken out for a test drive.
