Matteo Mancuso Signature Revstar - RS20MM

Matteo Mancuso playing the RS20MM

The RS20MM is a production signature model developed in collaboration with Matteo Mancuso. "I choose Revstar because it's rare to find a solid body that has so much flexibility for jazz and rock. I can achieve every sound I need thanks to the chambered body and the 5-way selector switch, plus it's super comfortable to play" It recreates the aesthetic and playing feel of his custom Revstar, translating his approach into a guitar designed for clarity, control, and balance. Every specification is selected to support precision and consistency across a wide range of playing styles.

SOUND

The RS20MM is equipped with DiMarzio® PAF® 36th Anniversary pickups, redesigned based on vintage PAF specifications. Their softer magnetic pull allows the strings to vibrate more freely, producing long sustain and a highly expressive pick response. This dynamic clarity is complemented by locking tuners, ensuring stable tuning and reliable performance in demanding playing situations.

CHAMBERED BODY WITH ACOUSTIC DESIGN

Using Yamaha’s exclusive Acoustic Design process, the RS20MM’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.

FOCUS SWITCH / 5-WAY SWITCHING

The push/pull tone control functions as a FOCUS SWITCH, activating a passive boost that emulates overwound pickups—darker highs, enhanced mids and lows for more aggressive tone. In addition, the 5-WAY SWITCHING system introduces a subtle phase shift in positions 2 and 4 by slightly delaying the opposite pickup, offering a fresh take on classic “in-between” sounds.

AESTHETICS

The RS20MM captures the refined visual character of Matteo Mancuso’s custom Revstar. A Vintage Sunburst flame‑maple top is paired with all‑gold hardware for a distinctive, elegant look. Matteo’s signature on the truss‑rod cover and a logo inlay at the 12th fret confirm its identity as his official signature model.
