The Yamaha Revstar Standard RSS02T Electric Guitar in Sunset Burst is a part of the Yamaha Revstar series. This guitar series was designed to offer a fresh take on classic guitar designs, incorporating modern features and aesthetics. Yamaha’s Revstar Standard RSS02T is an update of the original Revstar series of guitars, refined to offer improved comfort and even more striking visuals! This maple-topped double-cut’s lightweight chambered mahogany body is loaded with two rich and warm sounding VP5 pickups that deliver classic P-90 tones — from clean jazz textures on the neck pickup to wild overdriven leads on the bridge. The neck is comprised of carbon-reinforced mahogany so that it will stay straight and true in even the most challenging of environments. What’s more, Yamaha has equipped this Revstar with their proprietary “focus” switch that shifts your tone’s resonant frequency and supercharges your pickup’s power. If you’re looking for a high-performance, no-nonsense axe with explosive tones, rock-solid playability, and sleek modern aesthetics, the RSS02T sets the standard.

FEATURES:

1. Body: The body of the guitar is typically made of solid Nato wood, which is similar to Eastern Mahogany. Nato is chosen for its tonal characteristics and is often used to achieve a warm and balanced sound. The Sunset Burst finish adds a visually appealing aspect to the guitar.

2. Neck: The guitar features a set-in mahogany neck. Mahogany is known for its resonance and sustain, and a set-in neck joint contributes to good upper-fret access and tone transfer.

3. Scale Length: The standard scale length for this type of guitar is typically around 24.75 inches, which is a common scale length for guitars with a single-cutaway design.

4. Fingerboard: The fingerboard is made of rosewood, which is a popular choice due to its smooth feel and warm tone. It usually has 22 frets, providing a wide range of notes for playing.

5. Pickups: The Yamaha Revstar Standard RSS02T typically comes equipped with a pair of Yamaha-designed P-90 single-coil pickups. P-90 pickups are known for their clear and bright tones with a hint of vintage character.

6. Controls: The guitar typically has simple control layouts, including volume and tone knobs for each pickup, as well as a 3-way pickup selector switch. This allows you to shape and select various tonal options.

7. Hardware: The hardware is generally chrome-plated, which adds to the guitar's overall aesthetic.

8. Bridge: The guitar usually features a Tune-O-Matic bridge, which allows for precise adjustments of intonation and string height.

9. Tuning Machines: It comes with die-cast tuning machines, which help with tuning stability.

10. Overall Design: The Yamaha Revstar series is known for its unique and modern design, which sets it apart from more traditional electric guitar styles. The Sunset Burst finish is a visually striking element of this guitar's design.
