The newly developed Focus Switch can be accessed via Push/Pull functionality of the Tone control and activates a passive boost when required, which conjures up the sonic effect of hot-wound overwound pickups. If you're looking for a fatter, juicier sound with a pronounced low end and that extra bit of gain, you'll be in for a treat with the Focus Switch on the new Revstar models!
To optimize both the sound character and the weight point of the Yamaha Revstar, a newly developed chambering process is used. Thus, the body and neck of the Revstar models now feature several precisely placed resonance chambers with additional graphite reinforcement at key locations to ensure improved vibration transmission between body and neck and to noticeably improve values such as attack and sustain. The strategic placement of the cavities also ensures a comfortable balance of the instrument while playing with a strap.
Of course, the new Revstar instruments bring a diverse selection of interesting new color variations, which, for the love of motorsport, are kept in a classic Café Racer design. Thus, the new Swift Blue finish as a lively light blue with two striking white racing stripes or the chic Sunset Burst with sensational fade gradient impressively prove that the new Revstar series offers not only sonically but also visually the perfect instrument for every guitarist.
