The Yamaha Pacifica Series
One of the best electric guitar values for over a decade, Yamaha Pacifica guitars are well known for great tone and outstanding playability.
First launched in 1990, the Pacifica series was driven by the California session scene where versatility, performance and individuality were key.
The Pacifica series has been constructed to respond to various genres and play styles. Various pickup configurations provide a wide range of sound character from heavy distortion to a clear clean sound.
Neck Playability
C-shaped maple neck with rosewood fingerboard on the PAC012. It is smooth, responsive, and instantly playable — great for lead play or chording. And with a vintage tremolo bridge, you can play with the confidence that you will stay in tune.
