Yamaha Revstar Element RSE20 Red Copper
The Yamaha Revstar Element RSE20 revitalises the café racer inspired model, and embellishes it with a delightful mahogany chambered-body that infuses your guitars sound with extra projection and a blissful acoustic quality. Equipped with a pair of VH3 humbuckers the guitar is prepared perfectly to capture that impeccable sound. Playability is also taken into consideration, a delightful rosewood fretboard ensures an unblemished surface to effortlessly glide across, while a three-piece mahogany neck offers comfort and control.
The Yamaha Revstar Element RSE20 Red Copper has been built to deliver a fantastic tone from the moment of its inception. A chambered mahogany body delivers amazing acoustic resonance that expertly accentuates your performance. The mahogany construction provides scintillating highs, a tight mid-range, and a low-end that doesn’t muddy the mix. Neatly wrapped up with a maple top, the guitar holds just a little bit more weight and definition on the upper frequencies, lending perfectly to delightful, delicate harmonics.
An additional Dry Switch is accessed via the Push/Pull tone control and provides the sound of a split-humbucker for a delicate single-coil tone. It achieves this using a passive filter which is designed to give the perfect frequency response. By filtering out the low frequencies, this switch gives the punch and clarity of a single-coil minus the associated hum and often “hollow”-sounding tone from splitting a humbucker. This gives you a far more balanced and usable single coil tone, radically expanding the tonal potential of this guitar.
