The Yamaha RSE20 Revstar Element in Vintage White is an electric guitar designed with a lightweight, chambered mahogany body and dual Alnico V humbucking pickups. Inspired by “café racer” motorcycles, it offers a distinctive visual style and incorporates a push/pull “Dry Switch” for tonal versatility. The instrument is designed to provide excellent performance and features for its price point.
Key features
Acoustic design: The chambered mahogany body uses Yamaha’s Acoustic Design process to enhance resonance and reduce the guitar’s overall weight, making it comfortable for long playing sessions.
Dual Alnico V humbuckers: A pair of Yamaha VH3 humbuckers delivers a powerful, rich tone with a pronounced mid-range, suitable for a wide range of musical styles, including classic and modern rock.
“Dry Switch” high-pass filter: The push/pull tone knob activates a passive high-pass filter that cleans up the low frequencies. This provides a brighter, more articulate tone that can emulate the clarity of a single-coil pickup, but without the accompanying hum.
Comfortable playability: The guitar features a 3-piece mahogany set neck with a double-cutaway design for easy access to the upper frets. A satin polyurethane finish on the back of the neck ensures a smooth playing experience.
Vintage-inspired aesthetics: The Vintage White finish includes satin white racing stripes, giving it a classic, high-performance look.
