Internationally acclaimed guitarist Chris Buck is known for his fluid touch and soulful expression - a style he has built around the Yamaha Revstar. The RS02CB is a faithful recreation of his trusted custom model, the guitar that has shaped his sound from South Wales to stages around the world. Developed in close collaboration with Chris, it delivers the tone, feel, and character that define his playing - now available for every guitarist.

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 Yamaha's 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's original custom model. Its direct string-to-body design maximizes resonance, 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.
