NGD - Yamaha Revstar RS620

[T-Bone-BBQ]

Just bought it today and it'll be in next week. Been wanting one for a while and found one for a great deal. Looking forward to getting it in next week.

Here's a couple of pics from the site I bought it from.

I hope it ends up as good looking as the pics.

RevStars are great guitars.

Josh uses Revstars all over Royal Thunder records and it's his primary live instrument.

Awesome...I know someone on another forum who bought a couple of Revstars. One had P-90 pick ups which looked rad.

It'll be here Wednesday, so I'll see how good it is.

Is that made in Japan or Indonesia? I like the RS model but the satin hardware bothers me.

Re: NGD - Yamaha Revstar RS620

Made in Indonesia I believe, but I keep reading great reviews on how well they are made. I like the satin hardware personally.

I've played a couple Revstars, and I'm sure one is in my future.

Looks nice. How is the weight on those? Thickness looks somewhere between an SG and LP

It won't be delivered until Wednesday.

Yamahas seem to be very underated guitars.. They have been in biz for years and obviously know their stuff..
Back in the shred days of the 80s, they didnt seem to get alot of respec, but some of those old top line Pacificas were freaking amazing!!

No doubt. Santana played one way back when. Mike Stern played a Pacifica. I've owned several Yamahas through the years, and currently have a old BB-100 bass and an early steel string Silent Guitar. Esoteric jazz guy Kevin Kastning played a Yamaha 335 style for years when he lived here in Wichita, and sounded great.

Getting back the Revstars.... The first one I ever saw I told the salesguy, "This is just like a Junior". Should be great axes, and good sellers.
