Among the artists most closely associated with the REVSTAR series is internationally acclaimed guitarist Matteo Mancuso, known for his remarkable fingerstyle technique and exceptional technical ability. A REVSTAR player since the early stages of his career, Mancuso has made the series an integral part of his musical voice and currently plays a custom REVSTAR made at Yamaha’s custom shop in the U.S.
The RS20MM was developed in close collaboration with Mancuso, incorporating his preferences down to the finest detail to achieve the responsiveness and expressive range he seeks in an instrument. It features DiMarzio PAF 36th Anniversary pickups, which capture subtle variation in the player’s touch while delivering rich sustain. A 5-position pickup selector and Focus Switch also provide a broad tonal palette. Yamaha’s exclusive chambered body and a carbon-reinforced neck contribute to the instrument’s rich resonance and excellent balance. A flame maple top in Vintage Sunburst finish, paired with gold hardware, gives the guitar a striking appearance, while Mancuso’s signature on the truss rod cover and a dedicated logo inlay adorns the 12th fret.
Matteo Mancuso said, "I choose REVSTAR because it's rare to find a solid-body guitar with so much flexibility for jazz and rock. I can achieve every sound I need thanks to the chambered body and the five-way selector switch, plus it's super comfortable to play." Original Yamaha branded gigbag included.
