Yamaha Revstar Standard RSS02T Electric Guitar – Hot Merlot

The Yamaha Revstar Standard RSS02T is a refined evolution of the original Revstar series, combining sleek modern styling with powerful, vintage-inspired tone. Built with a chambered mahogany body and maple top, this guitar is lightweight, resonant, and extremely comfortable to play.

Loaded with Yamaha’s custom VP5 P-90 pickups, the RSS02T delivers everything from warm, smooth cleans to aggressive, dynamic overdrive with classic single-coil bite and added low-end depth. The carbon-reinforced mahogany neck ensures long-term stability and consistent performance in any environment.

A standout feature is Yamaha’s innovative Focus switch, which shifts the guitar’s resonant frequency and boosts output, giving you added tonal flexibility—from rounded, mellow textures to punchy, driven tones.

Key Features:

• Chambered mahogany body with maple top for resonance and reduced weight
• Dual Yamaha VP5 P-90 pickups with Alnico V magnets
• Carbon-reinforced mahogany set neck for stability
• “Focus” switch for enhanced tonal shaping and output boost
• Jumbo stainless steel frets for durability and smooth playability
• 12" fingerboard radius for comfortable performance
• Tune-o-matic bridge with racing tailpiece

This item is a B-Stock guitar sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is new and has never been previously owned. The photos shown are of the exact instrument you will receive.

Before shipment, our licensed technician will inspect and professionally set up the guitar to ensure it is playing its best.

During our inspection, we noted a small line/indentation on the underside of the body, likely a minor finish imperfection. This is difficult to photograph due to the gloss finish, but we’ve done our best to capture it (see last photo). We also observed some light surface scratches on the back plate (see photos).

Please note, these may not be the only cosmetic imperfections. As a B-Stock instrument, there may be additional minor blemishes that are small in nature and do not affect playability or performance.
