watching this after pre ordering a yamahe ac5r... i cant wait!

[@jimmyjimmy951]

Great show and tell. Now we are waiting for a production model for Chris Buck.. 👍🇦🇺

[@Allguitarinfo]

Man id love to work there for you guys. Yamaha guitars are incredible ..my Pac 721 and Revstar never let me down

[@syuwariritchie]

This is awesome! One of my bucket list to go there

[@BreakupBass]

Love Yamaha basses and Ampeg!

[@jeeeeev]

If I were to be sponsored by a guitar brand, Yamaha will be my #1 goal.

[@EliecerIzquierdo]

thanks for these videos!

[@carlolee2116]

The amazing brand yamaha.

[@Pulse2AM]

I've had LP's, Strats, Teles, Deans, Jazzmasters, ESP etc. I bought a Revstar 320 on close out for $200.00 and it's one of my favorite guitars I have owned. It's a beautiful looking guitar and a great basic rock machine. Here's a tip for Andrew, I built Architectural models professionally for years. If you cut a little slot with an X-acto into the tip of the glue dispenser you can ride the edge of the wood into that slot and lay down a perfect bead of glue. Looking down on the tip of the glue tip you would cut v shape - it would look like a V looking at the side of the glue tip. You can thank me later with a free guitar! LOL

[@theariesexperiment4642]

Would love to see a Revstar fashioned after a Jr. and simply add neck binding. Call it the Rev 1. Offer a P90 model and a humbucker model. Please?

[@skycaptain141]

Those 24 fret pacificas need to be a production model.

[@PastelComGini]

Very interesting. I wonder why there's no carved top Revstar, since the SGs/SGBs apparently are not in production anymore.

[@craigstack7942]

SG1820 is still produced.

[@faizfarhan903]

Interesting look inside Yamaha custom shop. But kinda sad coz less chance to get to make custom shop to make special order for normal or general customer. Maybe in future? 🙂

[@trevorgwelch7412]

Yamaha are better then C.F. Martin .... I Own Yamaha Acoustic Guitars . 🏆🏅✨✨✨

[@michagrabowski6753]

So, are you guys able to do in custom shop a version of Revstar with 3 pots? You know, 2 volume pots (one for each pickup) and master tone? Tbh, that would be awesome Revstar lineup upgrade :) Lack of second volume pot is the only thing that stops me from buying your regular Revstar guitar :)

[@VictorVonBelmont]

As a guitar tech, I would say that any good guitar tech can make thar mod for you.

[@Pulse2AM]

Oh buy one anyhow, they're beautiful and they're great! I have a 320, I love it.

[@markgrimm3564]

when is the chris buck goldtop signature modle coming out i'll buy one

[@shahnewaz78]

Hello.. Can you give me any information about about Yamaha Nsf 2000 ? Is this guitar still available...? I have an Yamaha SF 1000 and I am very lucky to have this guitar... Thank you...

[@arielista]

Rafa is the best

[@Xzvsc]

How to order?

[@HearGear]

Great video.. so how do I order a Custom Yamaha electric guitar to my specs ? Well, my specs are based out of an older Yamaha electric guitar, but with some modifications.. :D

[@Facu_Roldan]

I think they only do custom orders for artists 😔

[@RyanMcQuen]

Where is this located?

[@user-cl3re8xi7y]

According to Yamaha chat support, this custom shop no longer exists. Is that true?

[@TheGothiczen]

They shouda re-issue & market their sg models more rather than thier revstars.

[@tedbear2441]

Very interesting. I could do without the squealing guitar music in the background. The lads have enough stuff to say without trying to keep me awake with music.

[@MarkJVSomers]

Being left handed doesn't seem to be of interest to Yamaha.

[@jezzer1969]

Hi We’re a massive guitar company about to show you loads of cool guitars that we choose not sell. Despite the massive gaps in our range where we loose market share to ESP & Ibanez. Honestly guys sack your marketing director. They are clearly clueless.

[@rmo52]

Tell all of us about your vast global marketing experience before you bash this great company.

[@jezzer1969]

Oooh did I touch a nerve. Then show me a major musical instrument company who shows off endless products they never put into a production. Go on…name them. Oh…wait…there isn’t one 😂 A monkey can see the flaw in this strategy. As a guitar collector it’s not made me want to buy a Yamaha guitar beyond my SG1000 from 1983. Because it’s a dumb strategy.

[@thesaj1110]

Too bad hardly any good left-handed guitars, thumbs down.

[@aperezdeal]

Well Yamaha does make left handed pianos...bad joke I feel your pain man.

[@dimitrisgakis9206]

I like Yamaha guitars but I will not watch videos with stupid virtue signaling masks

[@listairgin]

Hi Dimitris, I love Yamaha acoustics but seeing him wearing that ridiculous nappy made me totally uninterested in what they are making. I’m done with any association with wokeness! 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

You guys aren't more stupid because the day just has 24 hours.
