What the fuck is up with this guy? I freakin' love him. I've never seen a guitar/amp demo that had such clear info. it's like he's generous instead of egotistical or self-conscious. (Seems like maybe a life choice for him though.) The whole video just had an uptempo feel that was awesome. AND the cat can play. He knows tone but is also super articulate about differences in tone. Shit man. This is tops. This dude will be north of 200K subs by this time next year.
Yes he's great, and with so much genuine enthusiasm. Only problem is that everything he plays sounds so good!
He could play toaster and i would buy it :)
He is a tele man, so you know his heart is in the right place...
He’s just a great player. It’s a pleasure to listen to him demo this stuff … kid was born to play the thing.
just discovered him today, Subbed!
The revstar is better than my USA fender and gibson guitars, spent 28 years trying to find the guitar that is perfect and this is it. Just buy one , it will be your forever guitar guarenteed.
How so?
The P90 sound with the humbucker look would be my choice, although I loved the sound of both of them. If I had to pick one I would waffle back and forth and never leave the store.
The P90 model fits my style. It's clarity is amazing.
Me 2..lol
Buy both.....
I guess I'll eventually buy both. I went for the humbuckers version because it fits my needs better at the moment, but I just love the P90s sound.
@@FlorentChardevel or drop in some p-94 type, can get similar sound to p-90 and if you get from GF they have the quick plugs so you can swap back and forth or 1 of each or what have you, easy as a couple screws and a string change, no need to buy 2 of the same guitar, unless you are super particular on having an exact "true p-90" sound, but ive not found the diff to be such that a little EQing cant easily tweak the sound to be the same, or really damn close.
In case anyone is wondering; intro song is instrumental version of Walk Idiot Walk by the Hives.
I think this update to the line moves the Revstar platform into the "classic" camp. It wouldn't be weird for someone to say "I'm a Revstar guy" in the same way someone might say "I'm a Strat guy."
Hilarious, I was actually just talking to someone about that same thing a few weeks ago!
Doubtful. They've had guitars in this form factor for ages, ie the SG. Even in the Pacifica line, they have super embelished models, but nobody in the general audience would say, "Oh check out that Yamaha PAC612V!"
@@9unslin9er -- There are plenty of vids on RUclips that do the very thing you doubt.
Funny you say that. I own a strat and am seriously looking into buying a Revstar... so you could say I'm ahhh.... Revstrat guy??...
@@9unslin9er The shape is so not an SG o.O that's like saying every asymmetric double cut is a strat...
like most guitarists, over the years i have ignored Yamaha because, essentially, they have never offered anything i couldn't get from another brand.
but the Revstar might be the first PROPER Yamaha choice they have put forward. it is it's own thing, AND, it's good. this guitar deserves to be popular.
i need a p90 guitar and Revstar just made the short list.
Hey Jay, lovin' the love you show the Revstar
Something about the yamaha, my dad has had his yamaha sg since 1979. He used to plug it in and play it every Friday evening after work. It was the highlight of the week for me watching my dad play. He still owns it but doesn't play it often. He's 76 now so his rock'n'roll day's are behind him lol. He said its mine when he passes on.
Love this comparison!! And that playing is fantastic
Excellent review, you hit the points and tone comparisons i was interested in. Thanks Jay, I think I really need a Revstar in my life now. Well done!!
i was there the whole time. haring that energy. felt like i was chillin with a fellow guitar buddy and he was just riffin
One of the best guitar review I've ever seen.
Thanks for the great review. Love your playing too.
Great playing and a really helpful, informative review. The new Revstars have really caught my attention in a few videos - but this is the first detailed comparison I've seen of the P90 and humbucker models. It's definitely sold me on the P90! Thanks!
Most excellent comparison video, dude! Now I definitely know which one I will be dreaming of.
That was some killer jammin' there at the beginning. Masterful playing on beautiful instruments, all the way through; terrific vid, thank ya.
5:33 those bluesy runs! The world needs to hear more of this good action 👍
By far the most convincing demo of these guitars online. Good job!
Fantastic review and playing; thank you
Awesome review. Great guitars. Great playing and thoughts.
Dang; that P-90 sounds killer. Great playing, Jay!
Awesome! A lot of these reviews dropped over the last few days, yours blows all of them away! Well done!
Thanks a ton!
JLJ is the absolute best! I watch these regularly. Jay runs through different playing styles, and understands musicians' expansive use/playing style of an instrument, which many others don't have the same skills to do. THANKS JAY! I wanna' buy all the new gear. :)
Pretty awesome guitars.
Great playing and informative video.
Thanks dude.
Great review. You really put this guitar through it's paces. Made my decision easy to buy one. That Santana lick hit the spot for me.
Thank you for the great review!! Your playing was stellar and I really enjoyed just listening to you as you dove into each instrument!! I wouldn't mind having both but I'd lean toward the P90 version due to the wide dynamic range that you demonstrated!!!
The Hives jam totally sold me on the P90s! Bravo sir
Glad the vid helped!
I want one of each....great playing as usual !!
those p90 have such a presence and range. love'em both !
My next guitar, I think... as soon as I lean to play the ones I have. Outstanding video!
Excellent comparison! Thanks!!
AWESOME guitar playing man.. GREAT CHANNEL I hope your channel grows fast
Great video Jay! Can’t wait to get them here in the studio!🤘😁
Love his playing. Great tone m8! & Getting The Cars/Elliot Easton vibes in the introoo
Omg P90 on neck position is holy grail! 🤘
This is the first video I’ve seen of Jay’s. can’t believe that I’ve never come across this channel before. An absolute beast of a guitar player and reviewer.
Thanks!
Yea, he's an all around good dude.
Can't decide! I'll take one of each! Thanks, JLJ!
Correct!
Such a great video. Outstanding presentation skills and man, the guy can play! Thank you for this exceptional video!
Awesome demonstration and really good playing. I’m definitely sold. Thanks!
Awesome, thank you!
Best demo and review of this guitars ever. Awesome!
Thanks so much :)
As always, nice review jay. I always end up GASSING up on all of the gears you review
This is the best review of the Revstar I've seen. Fantastic review and playing! This is how it is done. Thanks, Jay!
Really appreciate it :)
I still like the older versions looks wise. Great demo Jay whose been around for yrs as a great player and demo guy and plays in a band too.
Amazing playing 🤩
Had to hit the like button during the intro song... It's way too good !
Best video I have seen for these guitars!
Thanks so much :)
Great review and excellent playing, my dude! You truly understand what to play and which guitar, and play so many genres so well. I'm super envious! Also your ability to sound so complete and full just by yourself is commendable.
Thanks!
I am working my way through this and I can't believe how great a player Jay is. I'm a new subscriber.
Welcome to the page! Really glad you dug the vid :)
Jay . . . I've watched this review several times ... I love hearing the guitars ... love hearing you talk about them ... Enjoy your playing ... But the one thing it hasn't done, is help me make up my mind! I definitely want both!
What a great video. I got more information and insight into these new for 22 guitars than anywhere else on RUclips. Great job and thanks. My pick P90’s.
I ain't got the most descriptive way to put it, but the P90s just have more personality to my liking. Jay makes everything sound great.
Excellent, in depth, review. The comparison is spot on, helps making the choice of the instrument super easy, simple, and clear. You are a very dedicated and meticulous educator! I salute you and thank you for this beautiful analysis.
Really appreciate it, thanks for watching!
One of the best demos ever. Really gives the listener clear differences. Great job!
Thanks a lot!
Love the comparison of the two, but hands down, IMO, the humbuckers sound so much better. I also love the color pattern of the humbucker version too.
This guy is a monster! I love his playing every time i watch his video I'm inspired and he looks like he's having fun.
Thanks so much, really appreciate it :)
Really clear concise well thought out well produced review. Thank you.
Useful review and great playing. Thanks!
Really enjoyable and informative review. I like the look and sound of both, but the p90s are really tempting.
Great review . . . thanks! Both of these guitars are rock machines, but those P90s have a really unique sound!
Subscribed.....best review I've seen of any guitar product on RUclips. Killer player and great insight and delivery. Definitely going to buy the P90 version now too 👍
Thanks!
The Humbucker version hits the sweet spot between LP and 335. Great demo!
Great guitar playing. Everything you played was fun and really showed how the guitar sounds, you have a very varied musical influences and great chops. I've watched dozens of Revstar videos but this one is the most useful.
I really appreciate it, thanks!
Great intro with the hives 👍
I like the stripes and the bridge of the HB, but God, the sound of the P90, is absolute killer
Great job highlighting both guitars. I would get both if I didn't already have a sweet HH guitar. So I'm going to check out the P90 version. Really one of the best sounding P90 guitars I've heard, and with unique sounds.
Love your chops!
I really like the sound of the P90s. Realky sweet. Thanks.
Absolutely great review! I've got to go with the P-90 equipped Standard.
bro everytime i stumble upon one of your gear reviews i get mezmerized by your playing. your noodleing is just 10 times better than my playing when i try my best :D
Great playing! Sounds great
OOft! nice bit of jazz in the middle there. Nice one man.
Oh man that opening jam was sublime
Thanks!
The new Revstar updates with 41.9mm nut, satin neck finish, chambered body and stainless steel jumbo frets are very appealing! I lean towards teles and strats typically, so the P90 version would be my choice :)
Most excellent comparison!
Kind of stumbled across this RUclips channel by accident, shopping for a revstar, great review ,excellent playing and demo
Thanks!
Great video! Thanks for doing this comparison. I have been looking at these guitars, and I have been debating p90 vs humbuckers. This has been super helpful.
Excellent review. The detailed commentary about the pickups was very informative. Now I want both versions of the Revstar.
Correct answer, haha
Yes, you do!
I've got an rs320 (humbuckers) and the new standard with p90's.. Love them both.
P90s sound for me. Love the look of the metalic green with the black plate though!
Good demo - thank you.
I just got a merlot P90 model today. A friend of mine got a black one recently and was raving about it and i had never owned a electric Yamaha guitar before. I own about 40 guitars. Ranging from G&L, Fender, Gibson etc. This guitar is hands down one of the nicest guitars for the $. Just like all of the Yamaha products ive recently obtained, its all good stuff. Recently I got into buying cheap Yamaha acoustics, along the way i ended up with a SLG200S and this and im happy I was pointed this direction.
So far in 6 months my Yamaha collection consists of:
F310 (traded a cheap microphone for)
F325 (Blem model $85 delivered)
F325D (Blem model $75 delivered)
F335 (Blem model $95 delivered)
FD01S (Used model $105 shipped)
FG700 (Used $148 shipped)
FG800 (New $230 Zzounds)
SLG200S (New $729 Sweetwater)
Revstar p90 (New $799 Sweetwater)
I had never owned a Yamaha before recently and everyone of these guitars has been great additions to my collection and nice thing is obtaining all these guitars didnt cost an arm and a leg like some of the guitars i own. With the acoustics I just replaced saddle and nut with bone and intonated saddle and wood pins. Did basic setups. Guitars sound like a million bucks now. The Silent Guitar and the Rev are to me something unique and was needed in the guitar world. The Silent Guitar is worth checking out, it is NOT a toy, it is a REAL guitar. Dont let the looks fool ya. With the Rev they nailed the electronics and did something that isnt done enough. Pickup variations. Most P90 guitars have a 3 way. This was nice to get a 5 way and the mid boost. The only complain i had and have had with any of the Yamahas ive gotten, scratchy frets. Easy enough fix, but def more elbow grease on the Rev's stainless steel frets for sure. Yamaha has something going for it in many ways and among them is the finish or lack of finish on the back of the necks. I shave the back of all my necks (yes every guitar i own weather its a $800 guitar or a $5000 guitar has no finish on the neck). I tour and play festival stages in humidity, cold, rain, you name it. Sticky necks SUCK to deal with as your feel like your spending all your energy making sure your hand is going where it normally would go with little to no effort. I wish more companies would do this. THe Yamaha FG700 is one of the best acoustic guitars ive every played, not making that up. For $148 ! The Rev is worth all of $800 imho.
2 issues with the Rev:
Black 5 way tip (doesnt match the rest of the guitar, i ordered a cream one)
Scratchy frets
Thats it and for someone like me to only find 2 issues on a guitar and small issues at that, thats saying something.
I do want to make a rosewood guard for mine and get chrome pickup covers. Anyone know of anyone who makes guards for these newer rev's?
Great video! Thx for taking the time.
Thanks for watching!
Best guitar videos I have ever seen. a beginners dream.. spoken in a way that is informative and in away that I can really decide which model I would like to buy.. thank you P90's thx
Rock on!
Both sounded great. As I've got a Les Paul with humbuckers and a Strat I'm liking the P90 version to add variety to my sounds. But I wish I could have both! This is the first guitar not of the Fender, Gibson, PRS families that has caught my eye. Finally!
I have the P90 version in sunset burst on order from Sweetwater for a few months now and probably won’t get it for a few more months, but I can’t wait to get it!
I’ve had my eyes on the Revstars since I saw you playing it when they came out. Love the look. With the new lineup, I think I’d have to go with the P90’s, tho both sounded great. Thanks for the video!
Yeah, I've had many great years with my old Revstar. Really loving where they are taking the line and, yes, that P90 is awesome!
Jay I preferred the humbucker setup I felt as it had a better all round sound and playability. Thanks for the demo as usual u play AWSOME!!!
Great reviewer....nice one...love Revstars...i have the original humbucker model...im going to grab a P90 gradient burst one...loooks killer
Attracted by the Revstar review...I like this guy's personality!
J's great. He burns more calories playing seated than I do all day
He's got some chops too
Excellent demo! I like the blues and distortion, so Ill go with the HB version.
He is having a great time playing. His energy is joyous as are the noises he can make with a guitar.
Great review, and even better playing!! Thanks.
Thank you kindly!
YOU are a very good guitar player, and a very talented videographer and you are very good at communicating subtle nuances that are hard to explain anyway. Thank you for your fantastic review! If you have time, I would be happy if you could tell us something about the signal chain. I really love that sound!
I really appreciate it, thanks!
Never seen your channel before, but came across this review. You’re a really great player and I love this review~!
I really appreciate it!
You're rad dude, great review.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love P90s and humbuckers. I love filtertrons and fender single coils too. I like them all as long as they’re not high gain or active. Even when I play high gain I still want a low output pickup.
Very helpful!! a lot of reviewers forget (or maybe can't) show the full dynamics and range of the instrument.
Really appreciate it!
Amazing ability to describe tones. GREAT job. Awesome playing. Shocked how much I like the P90 sounds.
Thanks! The P90 definitely rocks!
Revstars are fantastic! The one with p90s is soo cool!
Great video, I now have one of each and they're great. BTW I love the Tabla there in the shot. I have a couple of Dholak drums sitting n my studio.
First time here. Excellent comparison and I love your attitude and playing! Subscribed!
Thanks for the sub!! Glad you dug the video :)
Nice playin'!
I love both of them but have a fondness for P 90s although I could easily go for the humbucker version of but I already have a Les Paul. Killer demo/comparison of the two. Amazing playing and excellent comments as well! Just an all-around amazing video!
This is me, in reverse! I already have a Tele, so I was thinking, that P-90 sounds really nice, but I already have that space mostly covered.
Agree! I also have a ‘Paul and was considering the Humbucker model. Now seriously looking at the P90 model. We’ll see…
That green one 😍😍
