Different. Interesting. Inspiring.

Drawing inspiration from London and Tokyo’s vintage street-racing motorbikes, Japan’s heritage of engineering excellence, and our 50-year history of guitar craftsmanship, every detail of every Revstar model been carefully engineered to bring out the unique personality of each guitar in the lineup. From the curves and contours of the ground-up body design to the distinctive colours and finishes and custom-wound pickups that perfectly match the guitar’s character, the Revstar collection comprises a diverse lineup of instruments as unique as the guitarists who play them.

"It's a beautiful-looking fiddle; the violin has always been a model of symmetry and perfect dimensions, both physical and tonal so there's a certain deep appeal to the fact that the frame of this electric violin is based on the Möbius strip - an infinite loop, made of wood."

Laurie Niles, Violinist.com
