60 years of guitar design. No reissues. Just forward.

At #NAMM 2026, I had a chance to hang out with Andy Winston from Yamaha Corporation. We talked Chris Buck's signature #Revstar, the new #Pacifica SC, and we deep dived into the BB/7345 bass (the #BB734 it is on my wishlist, Andy!!! Jast saying... 😅 I do not have the patience for 5 strings! ) and most of all about why this amazing company keeps building more instrument than the price tag says.

Andy's words: "We don't do reissues. You're never gonna see us reissue a 1972." That's the philosophy. Draw from history. Build for tomorrow.

🎸 #ChrisBuck Signature #Revstar – Overwound P90s, stainless steel frets 🎸 #PacificaSC – Rupert Neve pickups, 5 sounds from 2 pickups 🎸 #MatteoMancuso Revstar – Coming Summer 2026 🎸 #BBBass – String-through body, active/passive, professional features at real prices

I own a Revstar. Bought my nephew a Pacifica. The BB734 is on my wishlist.

There's passion here. And value.
