A Pacifica Designed as a Versatile Guitar in Yamaha's Range
The Yamaha Pacifica PA112V embodies the "workhorse" spirit of the Pacifica series: a reliable, well-finished electric guitar designed to cover a wide range of styles without complications. With its selected components (woods, Custom Alnico V pickups, vintage vibrato) and comfort-oriented setup, it achieves a very successful balance between classic aesthetics and modern playability demands.For Whom and Which Styles
This Pacifica is particularly suitable for beginner to intermediate guitarists who want a single guitar capable of doing it all, but it remains an excellent base for advanced players seeking an efficient and versatile electric guitar. It feels at home in rock, blues, pop, funk (with crisp clean tones), and can handle thicker overdriven sounds thanks to the bridge humbucker, while maintaining very usable intermediate positions.Sound
The solid alder body provides a natural balance between attack, present mids, and clean lows, helping the guitar cut through a mix. The maple neck adds precision and responsiveness, while the rosewood fingerboard slightly rounds off the high end for a warmer tone. The Custom Alnico V pickups offer defined clean sounds on the single coils and a thicker bridge humbucker for riffs and solos. The push/pull control splits the humbucker to regain finer tones, useful for rhythm playing and funk parts.Technical specifications
