What is the difference between a high-end production guitar and a Custom Shop model?

High-end production guitars (such as PRS Core Custom 24 or Gibson USA Standard) utilize advanced CNC precision combined with hand-finishing in standard production runs. Custom Shop models feature lower batch volumes, hand-selected tonewoods, custom hand-wound pickups, period-accurate construction, and master luthier voicing.

Why should I avoid drop-shipped high-end electric guitars?

Drop-shipped guitars are dispatched directly from logistics warehouses without unboxing or inspection. Without a bench inspection and 5-point setup by an in-house guitar technician, you risk receiving an unplayable instrument affected by climate shifts during storage and transit.

What does MusicStreet's 5-point setup include?

Every instrument sold through MusicStreet undergoes a comprehensive 5-point bench inspection: truss rod and neck relief calibration, nut slot depth check, bridge radius and intonation alignment, pickup height and electronic circuit testing, and fretboard conditioning.

Can I try boutique and custom shop guitars in person at MusicStreet?

Yes. MusicStreet operates a showroom at 10 Chequers Court, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, where players can test premium PRS, Fender, and Gibson models through high-end amplifiers in a dedicated testing environment.

Yamaha RS02CB Chris Buck Signature Revstar Honey Gold

£1,049.00

Chris Buck signature design

The RS02CB was developed directly with Chris Buck to recreate the instrument that has shaped his sound for years. Every element reflects his preferences, from the pickup voicing to the bridge style and aesthetic details. Buck's playing is known for its expressive phrasing and touch sensitivity, and this guitar is designed to respond naturally to those nuances. The result is an instrument that captures the feel of his personal Revstar while offering the reliability and precision expected from a modern Yamaha guitar.

Custom P90-style pickups

At the heart of the RS02CB is a pair of specially voiced P90-style pickups designed with Chris Buck's tonal preferences in mind. These pickups are tuned for slightly lower output, allowing greater clarity and responsiveness at lower volumes while still delivering strong, open tones when pushed. The design emphasises dynamic response and articulation, creating a direct connection between the guitar's acoustic resonance and its amplified sound.

Chambered body with acoustic design

The RS02CB features a chambered construction developed through Yamaha’s Acoustic Design process. By strategically shaping the internal chambers, Yamaha enhances the guitar's natural resonance while also reducing weight. The combination of maple and mahogany contributes to a balanced tonal response with warmth, clarity, and sustain. A carbon-reinforced three-piece mahogany neck further improves stability, ensuring the instrument remains reliable and consistent even under demanding stage conditions.

Wraparound bridge and distinctive styling

A TonePros AVT2 wraparound bridge provides a direct string-to-body connection that enhances sustain and resonance. This design mirrors the bridge used on Chris Buck's own instrument and contributes to the organic response that defines his sound. Visually, the RS02CB stands out with its Honey Gold finish, amber hat knobs, and stylish inlays. Chris Buck’s signature on the back of the headstock adds a personal touch, connecting the instrument to the guitarist who inspired its design.
