Yamaha Revstar RSS02T Hot Merlot

What we say:

At A Glance

The Revstar RSS02T Hot Merlot is packed with retro style and Yamaha ingenuity. It has a carbon reinforced neck, P90 type single coil Alnico V pickups, a Racing Tailpiece... what more could you want? It manages to find an excellent balance between retaining the vibe of the original Revstar guitars yet refining them for contemporary guitarists. With a wide selection of excellent tones easily accessible, the RSS02T might be the only guitar you need.

Features We Love:

Chambered Body

At the heart of the Revstar RSS02T is a chambered mahogany body with a maple top. This gives the guitar an excellent degree of resonance, lighter weight, and excellent balance when used with a strap, plus it has the classic benefit of a maple top. Basically, it is great for gigging and has the looks to back up its top sound!

Stainless Steel Frets

A premium feature that improves playability and durability, stainless steel frets are becoming a must-have for guitarists with a demanding schedule in need of a guitar that will go the distance. Needless to say, the RSS02T definitely fits that remit!

Tone Options

The VP5 P-90 type pickups set an excellent tonal foundation but expanding on this further is the 5 position selector and the Focus Switch. It is phenomenal how much tonal variety you can get here from a guitar with only 2 pickups!

Who Is It For?

Guitarists who play Indie, Rock, and Alternative styles of music will likely really enjoy what the Revstar RSS02T can do as well as its stylish retro appearance.

Highlights:

• An updated version of a much-loved model
