The RSP20X is a seriously impressive instrument—Yamaha really knocked it out of the park. That chambered mahogany body gives it a warm, resonant voice, while the VH5 pickups offer a surprising amount of clarity and grit. This is a fantastic choice for players who want a refined, modern feel with a touch of vintage vibe.

Frequently Asked Questions
It essentially acts as a mid-boost, adding more presence and clarity to the signal—great for cutting through a mix or adding a bit more 'oomph' to solos.
The 41.9mm nut width and 24mm thickness at the 12th fret provides a comfortable feel, but players with very large hands might find it slightly snug compared to a wider 'C' shape.
It's a lacquer finish, so it's susceptible to wear like any other—regular polishing will help maintain its luster, but expect some patina to develop over time, which some players might find desirable.
