Chris Buck holding up his Signature Revstar.

"My custom shop Revstar has been the beating heart of every record I’ve made and every show I’ve played since I first laid hands on it in 2020. It hasn’t left my side and has quite literally travelled the globe with me, from Cairo to California. The phrase “labour of love” gets thrown around a little too often these days, but collaborating so closely with Yamaha to recreate my guitar over the past few years has been exactly that. I’m beyond thrilled to finally see it come to life. As much as it may be based on my guitar, this one’s yours… "

—Chris Buck

 

CUSTOM P90 STYLE PICKUPS

At the heart of the RS02CB is a specially voiced P90-style pickup, developed closely with Chris.“There’s honestly nothing better than the sound of a great P90 style pickups-dynamic, responsive, and the truest conduit between the acoustic resonance of the guitar and its electric voice,” he says.By refining coil windings and magnet selection, the pickup is tuned for slightly lower output, allowing a clear, detailed response at lower volumes and a strong, open tone when driven. This gives the instrument a wide, natural range that reflects the player’s touch.


CHAMBERED BODY WITH ACOUSTIC DESIGN

Using the Yamaha exclusive Acoustic Design process, the RS02CB’s chambered body enhances tone while reducing weight, while a carbon-reinforced neck adds strength and stability. The result is a guitar that’s perfectly balanced, resonant, and built for the stage.


WRAPAROUND BRIDGE

The RS02CB features a wraparound bridge, carried over from Chris' original custom model. Its direct string-to-body design maximizes resonance and sustain, giving players the same organic response that Chris relies on for every gig.

AESTHETICS

The RS02CB reflects Chris Buck’s own custom Revstar: Honey Gold finish, amber hat knobs, and stylish inlays. His signature on the back of the headstock marks his personal connection to the instrument - a guitar that has travelled the world with him, now ready to start its journey with you.
