Inspired by the 1974 Yamaha Super Flighter guitar, the RS620 takes its design cues from a cult classic, combining them in perfect balance with the individual styling and custom-built vibe of the Revstar concept. Its roots definitely run deep, but this isnt your dads guitar. Includes gig bag.
Pickups
Designed from the ground up, Revstar features specially wound YGD pickups that areperfectly matched to each guitar. More than 50 prototype pickups were testedfeaturing different combinations of wire, windings, magnets and base plates.Eventually, a spec was settled on for each guitar model and the Revstar pickup serieswas born. This model featuresVH5 pickups (8.3k (neck)/8.8k (bridge) DCR) with Alnico V magnets, German silverbaseplate and heavy formvar wire for bright, powerful, balanced vintage/modernsound

Dry Switch
Designed especially for Revstar, Yamaha’s proprietary Dry Switch gives you theversatility of a coil split, but with a tone that’s miles ahead.Using a passive filter circuit painstakingly designed to give the perfect frequencyresponse, the Dry Switch filters out low frequencies to give the punch and clarity of asingle coil pickup minus the inevitable hum and hollow tone often associated withsplit humbucking pickups.And because it’s a filter circuit, the Dry Switch works on both humbuckers and P90s for a totally unique, usable tone.

Custom Hardware
Inspired by the stripped-down custom Caf Racer motorbikes popularized on thestreets of London in the 1960s, Revstar’s hardware captures the high-performance,individual character of those bikes with a wide range of totally unique, customizedhardware. From the unique pickup covers and raw copper scratchplate on the RevstarProfessional, to the totally custom floating aluminum tailpiece on the RS502T, eachand every component is perfectly calibrated for great performance and unmistakablestylecapturing the very essence of a Caf Racer.

Sound Image
Inspired by raw power and performance, Revstar’s sound is as unique and bold as itsaesthetic. Working to evoke a visceral, unbridled power and an individual, organictone that is made possible only by considering every detail, Yamaha’s engineers chosematerials carefully and designed custom pickups to make sure Revstar sounds asstunning as it looks.
