with TWO FREE online lessons

 

The class-leading Pacifica 112V combines player-focused, stage-ready spec with no-compromise construction and set-up to create the best value player’s guitar on the market.

Guitars aren’t complicated – Yamaha take a solid American Alder body, a maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and team it with custom designed pickups, a killer vintage trem and rock-solid chrome machineheads. Then they put it all together and give it a set-up any rock-star’s guitar tech would approve of.

It’s the perfect combination of retro-style and modern performance, designed to be easy-to-play and great sounding, so you can get your ideas from your head to your amplifier just the way you want to hear them.

Performance Description

 

A sound for every occasion

Free from limitations. The Yamaha Pacifica 112 knows no boundaries when it comes to its sonic potential. Equipped with two alnico single-coils and an alnico humbucker pickup, this guitar is a versatility machine. Produce the scorching hot tones of Zeppelin from the bridge humbucker, or achieve that single-coil snap of Hendrix. Whatever your style, the Pacifica is sure to astonish in every performance.

Take control. The Pacifica’s classic design allows you to shape your sound in any way you like. With a 5-way pickup selector, you can mix and match between the differing pickups to truly find your tone. This way, you can adapt to any genre you wish, and produce a tone of signature Yamaha quality. Both volume and tone knobs are also included to give you the power to alter your guitar’s voice, even during performance. So you can never be restricted when playing live.

Supreme comfort

Endless playing. The Yamaha Pacifica is specially designed to provide players with an effortless playing experience. Which is why it features a collection of sleek tonewoods and ergonomic qualities.

Firstly – the neck. Sculpted entirely out of maple, the Pacifica’s satin-finished neck fits perfectly in the palm of the player’s hand. So position changes can remain simple and painless for hours of practice. Layered with an ultra-smooth walnut fretboard, your fingers can glide up and down the scale length with total ease. A lightweight alder body is ergonomically contoured for maximum comfort, creating a sense of weightlessness when you play standing, or sitting.

Yamaha have taken every step necessary to provide players with a guitar that longs for endless practice and performance. And they’ve certainly delivered with the Pacifica.

Express through your playing

Tremolo bridges have been used throughout the careers of some of the most legendary guitarists in history. Hendrix. Van Halen, and countless others have utilised it as the rawest form of expression in their performances. Whether it's singing solos, squealing dive bombs, or even just a subtle shimmer on chord-playing – tremolo bridges let players take their performance to the next level. Which is why Yamaha have equipped the Pacifica with their very own vintage tremolo system, ensuring you can express your playing to its full potential.
