Yamaha Revstar RS820CR Café Racer Brushed Black
Up for sale is a stunning 2010s Yamaha Revstar RS820CR in the sleek, highly sought-after Brushed Black finish. Inspired by the stripped-down look of 1960s London and Tokyo "Café Racer" motorcycles, this guitar looks like a custom-shop masterpiece.
The RS820CR was a top-of-the-line model in the original Revstar lineup, and the build quality coming out of Yamaha’s premium Indonesian factory easily rivals guitars at twice the price.Why This Guitar Stands Out:
- The Look & Feel: The hand-rubbed Brushed Black finish offers a gorgeous satin texture that shows off a subtle wood grain under the right light. Paired with the signature copper-colored anodized aluminum pickguard and satin-nickel hardware, it has an undeniable rock-and-roll swagger.
- Premium Hardware: Equipped with a premium, rock-solid TonePros AVT-II adjustable wraparound bridge for incredible tuning stability, massive sustain, and perfect intonation.
- Massive Tonal Versatility (The Dry Switch): Powered by custom-wound YGD Vintage Plus Alnico V humbuckers, this guitar delivers rich, muscular, Les Paul-style tones. But pull up on the tone knob, and you engage Yamaha’s passive "Dry Switch"—a high-pass filter that cuts the muddy low-end to give you snappy, single-coil/P90 clarity without adding any hum.
- Player's Comfort: Features a comfortable, substantial 3-piece mahogany neck with a bound rosewood fingerboard and 22 jumbo frets. Thanks to the deep belly cut and hidden forearm contours, it balances perfectly on a strap and feels incredibly comfortable for long sessions.
- Comes with original Yamaha gig bag.
