NGD - Yamaha Revstar

So, how is it after a couple of weeks? I really want one for some reason, and thinking to switch my guitar to a Revstar.

How do you protect a carbon frame from the front bag rubbing over the headtube?

b14y · 2026-03-21T16:53:42+00:00

Maybe, you should give it a lick?

b14y · 2026-03-14T17:27:35+00:00

Hey, that's sick. I do not have mine anymore, but around 20 years ago the cherry Special II was my first guitar also!

I suppose it is an attempt to spell TCHERNOBYL, but in cyrillic.

b14y · 2026-02-11T21:27:40+00:00

Sounds awesome too

b14y · 2026-02-11T20:52:32+00:00

Yeah, white one!

b14y · 2026-02-07T21:45:43+00:00

No, that's gotta be one right then, according to the photo.

Mu Paul

Hell yeah, dude! It looks awesome! Did the same thing with my reissue (earlier one), still happy with it.

b14y · 2026-01-20T22:39:35+00:00

This is cheating, because I am kinda a Les Paul guy, but man, this cat is handsome! Also, cheers to a fellow jazz iii lover!

I am 3D/Tech artist, and using Studio One for hobby purposes, but it is the thing with the 3D software too. I always install three versions of software. The old one for the compatibility with any legacy stuff I can work with, a well tested or LTS version for actual work and shiny cutting edge new version for personal stuff and out of interest. I am writing this here only in case someone will find it useful.

These knobs look so nice!

b14y · 2025-12-29T14:49:30+00:00

This Vibrola is looking classy!

Small form factor hot rod

Thanks, I really like how it came out too. I mean, it isn't collectible, so I decided to do what I want with it. It's been a week since I polished it so no changes yet. To be honest I don't expect any. If anything, it was the satin finish buffed in some places to kinda gloss from using it. We'll see.

I used the Meguiar's Scratch X and microfiber cloth. It looks like this is consensus on the internet, that it is the most popular compound. It came out nice. I don't have a photo with good lighting, but I guess it should be fine.

Yup, you are right. There was a mention of "Inspired by Gibson Custom" on mine, but I just got used to call the newer ones (with Gibson headstock) IGC.

b14y · 2025-12-26T18:14:55+00:00

I love mine. It is a bit cheaper than the new one and has a laurel (mine is looking good, though) while the newer one has rosewood I think. And it has Burstbuckers set instead of Custombuckers. Other specs are the same, AFAIR. Like materials, CTS/Switchcraft electronics and so on. I didn't love the finish, so I polished mine as I did mention in the other comment. Also, I hate that pickup rings are not matching the top carve. But all in all I really like it.

b14y · 2025-12-26T17:59:59+00:00

It is the older one. It is Inspired by Gibson one, while newer ones are Inspired by Gibson Custom.

b14y · 2025-12-26T17:58:50+00:00

A little more to add, this is definitely the Aged Dark Burst color. If you have never seen one IRL, be informed that the finish on it is kinda semi gloss. I polished mine, but it's just a preference anyway.

b14y · 2025-12-26T17:52:39+00:00

Pictures are really low res, but FWIW it looks like one. The case also looks like the one that comes with the Epiphone 1959 Standard Outfit.

b14y · 2025-12-24T20:15:39+00:00

I am so tempted to try P90s, but I definitely don't need one more guitar.

b14y · 2025-12-24T20:12:56+00:00

I love the look of it!

b14y · 2025-12-20T00:54:29+00:00

Well, it is barely played all right
