Café racer-inspired style meets modern precision.
Blending fearless attitude with full-throttle performance, the Yamaha Revstar Standard RSS02T chambered electric guitar is a high-octane ode to the iconoclastic café racer culture of the 1960s. Beneath its sleek retro-chic aesthetic lies a chambered mahogany body topped with maple for lively resonance with a lightweight feel. A carbon fiber-reinforced three-piece maple neck provides rock-solid stability and sleek playability, while dual P90-style single-coils with a push/pull Focus Switch deliver classic growl with modern flexibility. A Tune-o-matic bridge with a racing-inspired tailpiece rounds out the package with vintage flair, making the Revstar Standard RSS02T a timeless choice for demanding modern performers.
Chambered Mahogany Body With Maple Top for Lively Resonance
The RSS02T’s chambered mahogany body and maple top team up to deliver both warmth and definition, offering a tonal character that’s equally suited to both clean articulation and gritty overdrive. Yamaha’s unique Acoustic Design process optimizes the internal chambering for maximum resonance and balance, while keeping the instrument lightweight and comfortable for extended play. The maple top adds crisp attack and visual flair, resulting in a guitar that looks as dynamic as it sounds. Whether you’re tracking in the studio or hitting the stage, the RSS02T’s body design enhances tone, comfort and sustain in equal measure.
Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Mahogany Neck for Rock-Solid Stability
Built for effortless playability and long-term reliability, the Revstar Standard RSS02T’s three-piece mahogany neck is reinforced with carbon fiber for exceptional stability in any setting. The satin finish feels smooth and fast under your fingers, while the rosewood fretboard provides a rich tonal contrast and a touch of classic elegance. With a comfortable medium profile and 22 precisely dressed frets, the neck offers the perfect blend of traditional feel and modern refinement. Whether you’re digging into expressive bends or complex chord work, the Revstar’s neck is engineered for performance you can count on night after night.
P90-Style Pickups With Focus Switch for Dynamic Versatility
The RSS02T’s dual P90-style single-coil pickups deliver a wide tonal palette—from chiming cleans to growling overdrive—with the kind of dynamic response that rewards expressive playing. A five-way switch provides access to unique phase combinations in positions 2 and 4, creating airy, articulate tones ideal for rhythm and lead work alike. The push/pull Focus Switch acts as a passive boost, tightening lows and mids for a more aggressive, overwound character. It’s a versatile setup that covers everything from vintage jangle to punchy modern rock, all with unmistakable Revstar attitude.
Vintage-Inspired Hardware and Premium Appointments
Every detail of the Revstar Standard RSS02T has been designed to perform as beautifully as it looks. The Tune-o-matic bridge ensures stable intonation and solid sustain, while the custom racing-inspired tailpiece nods to the café racer heritage that inspired the model’s aesthetic. The gloss body finish contrasts perfectly with the satin neck for a professional feel and sleek appearance. Yamaha’s signature hanko stamp on the back of the headstock—a mark traditionally used in Japan as a personal seal—serves as a reminder that each Revstar is built with pride and precision.
A Timeless Guitar Built for Modern Expression
The Yamaha Revstar Standard RSS02T chambered electric guitar embodies the perfect balance of tradition and innovation. Its P90-style pickups, chambered construction and high-performance neck make it an incredibly versatile instrument for rock, blues and beyond. Designed to reflect the spirit of individuality that defined the café racer era, the RSS02T invites you to carve your own sonic path with confidence and style. Take the stage, plug in, and let the Yamaha Revstar Standard RSS02T drive your sound forward.
