@theblytonian3906 Год назад

@@TheDrunkenScoundrel They won't because Yamaha can sell every Standard they produce with a long waiting list. Yamaha have hit their price stride with the release of the Revstar G2 range. Significant price increases and increased margins dealers will love, consumers not so much. In truth compared with everyone else I have to admit Yamaha have been underpricing their instruments for us to enjoy for an aeon. The previous model RS502T was half the price of the current RSS02T 5 or 6 years ago. Luckily I bought my three RS Revstars over the past 5 years and won't be trading down to any G2 any time soon. Only thing I see as an improvement is the stainless steel frets on the Standards. That does get a tick from me.

@dylano6033 Год назад

Very happy to see you checking out these guitars Andy! The full fat Japanese model looked gorgeous and I'm sure it's craftsmanship is phenomenal. But the elements model has to be the one to get for someone looking for a bargain. The element model stacks up very well against something like say an Epiphone LP, with the standard actually being around the same price range as the higher end Epis. I have to say I'd take the Revstars over them and I'm a big LP style guitar fan.

@cchavez248 Год назад

@KakavashaForever Год назад

Great video, really like seeing a spotlight on the cheaper guitar in the range rather than the middle one which seems to be the trend with most ranges. Folks often fall into the habit of writing off the lowest end model even when it really does have something special to offer for the price. I don't think I've ever played a guitar in the Element's price range that felt or sounded as good as it does, it really does offer 95% of the Standard for a little over half the price. That said I love the Standard for the unique 2 and 4 settings on the pickups.

@keithb5612 Год назад

Thanks for the review. It was interesting to note that another reviewer mentioned that the out of phase positions on the new Yamaha models are muddy and a little bit odd sounding ( which was audibly noticeable through RU-vid ) when using a Helix digital modelling unit. Something to note if your not using analogue pedals on your pedalboard. It was a bit disappointing to hear this as it effectively reduces your switching tones on the guitar. I would liked to have had locking tuners on the guitar too. Cheers

@allanflippin2453 Год назад

Andy, Blind tests are rough. I appreciate the effort. I would have bought a Revstar by now, except there's no whammy bar. The old Revstars used to have whammy available!

@edryba4867 Год назад

That yellow one sounds terrific in clean mode. Once you step on the pedal, they sound VERY similar. And just so you can remember, a “High Pass” filter allows it to pass the high frequencies. A “Low Pass” filter lets it pass low frequencies. Unless I’ve got that reversed…

I'm reminded of watching a certain channel with a certain guitar youtuber claiming to be able to do this with american strats and squiers, got it the wrong way round then started feeling the knobs and switches and changed his mind. Then spent the rest of the video slagging off cheap guitars. Revstars look and sound great. I feel they do sounds different but not really one better over the other. The yellow one has a more raw feel and the expensive one a bit more smooth.

@nathanmclauchlan5148 Год назад

Your right there is a difference in the clarity of the sound, but still not a huge sound difference given the prices. Gotta say I am loving the yellow guitar. It would be better with the fret markers from the standard and pro models

Love seeing these Revstar videos! My wife got me a Revstar standard with P-90s for Father’s Day from Sweetwater. Still waiting to get it in my hands, but if they had P-90s in the element version, I agree with Andy that those are really the Revstars to own. Such incredible bang for your buck! Yamaha makes fantastic instruments and amps, Can’t wait to pair that Revstar with my Pacifica 612 (which is a joy to play) and my THR30II (which brings the walls down in my office)

The Revstars are some cool guitars. I'm interested in them for a while but haven't seen one in any of my regular stores (I dont buy guitars without trying them). nevertheless, great short review Andy!

First 2 were LP-style and superb. The one follows suit. It's needed nothing. Not even fret ends gone over. Monoprice sells some pretty dang good guitars. Either that or I've just gotten extremely lucky 3 times in a row lol

@justmehere6094 Год назад

Personally, I think the Standard is the level to get. It is basically an Indonesian built version of the Pro, even using the same pickups and hardware, and just doesn't have the carbon in the body, and the vibration treatment to break-in the guitar. Which is why I have a Standard, and it is my daily player now. In the states, it's $300 more than the Element, but to get rolled SS frets and the Pro level pickups is, imho worth it.

Obviously, if your buying Japanese built guitars, you know what quality is. But as far as there being a huge difference between the ones made in Indonesia? There isn't enough to make me pay $350 more for stainless frets, carbon fiber rods, and maple caps with binding. All those things are great and dandy. But I don't NEED them. I used some spare parts I've accumulated to hop up an Element model in black. Its become the Deathstar! Can't get that thing anywhere near my HB G212plus Creamback cab when I'm running it through the MT15. Gonna have to patch in the noise gate its soo wicked. Its by far the loudest acousticly of all my guitars. Really wants to feedback no matter what you do. Gonna be interesting to see how the coilsplit tones sound once I can control the damn thing.

@ellesnyder942 11 месяцев назад

pro has additional carbon reinforcement in the lower bout- the standard only has it in the neck. The pro is treated with initial response acceleration to make it sound "played in". (broken in.) It is made in Japan, Standard is made in Indonesia.

@genenery9315 Год назад

If you’d used a clean sound on both guitars initially, it would be far easier to hear this clarity you keep speaking of. Distortion just covers it all up.

@abuzafeera Год назад

Actually, there's no different sound between the pro and the standard, they use the same wood, carbon, pots, caps, bridge, tuning machine, hardware, pickup, quadrant techtron HPV nut, and stainless steel fret. If there's the USA build, the majority of people would say "wow this USA build sounds better than the other's" and think the US build is better, japan in second, Indonesia in third even though they have the same wood, same pickup, same hardware, electronics, and the finishing quality. It is crazy how big named brand set your mindset.

I did my own Revstar Standard blind test when I bought one: First I played my brilliant Fender Player Plus Telecaster which, as usual, sounded like aural nectar. Then I played the Revstar, which sounded like a busted banjo thanks to rattling G and top E strings caused, most likely, by a sloppily cut nut. In other words, TERRIBLE QUALITY CONTROL by Yamaha. Guess this is the difference between Mexico and Indonesia. Needless to say, the dud Revstar went back. I won't bother buying another one. btw, it didn't even feel good - compared to the super-smooth Telecaster it was stiff and cheap feeling, yet the difference in price between these guitars (in England) is little more than £200.
